It seems more like they're renamed to "Visa Cash App RB" which is quite literally the worst F1 team name ever.

Fortunately we already refer to Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team as Mercedes and MoneyGram Haas F1 Team as Haas, so hopefully we'll just have Sauber and Racing Bulls this year
The registered company is now "Racing Bulls SpA". They are gonna run in F1 as "Visa Cash App RB" like how Alpine run as "BWT Alpine" and Aston Martin runs as "Aston Martin Aramco".
But what will people actually call them though? There's nothing in the name you can use as it's either sponsors or RB, which is too close to Red Bull. At least with Alpine and Aston Martin you can just drop the sponsor name.
Internally they call it "v-carb" apparently lol
I vote we just call them "Red Bull's sister team."
I'll stick with Toro Rosso!
I still call them Minardi
I'm partial to steer, they are a neutered red bull team.
There was a time when Racing Point was still being called Force India. The fact is if we are asking these questions and rejecting the team name weโll all know what we are talking about and the commentators will find the path of least resistance
Shouldn't they be named the racing steers since they are the neutered red bulls.
What are we going to call them? VISAS? Cashies? Bulls?
Toro Rosso
Red bull B team.
Red BBull
Internally they are calling them "v-carb" apparently
Are you thinking what Iโm thinking RB1? I think I am RB2โฆ!
- May or may not be a regional reference to Bananas in Pyjamas an Australian childrenโs TV show on the ABC
I do love fig newtons
