The global partnership between Disney and Formula 1 has been extended to 2028, and it will be marked by an unprecedented collaboration at Monza, home of the iconic Italian Grand Prix. With the animated film celebrating 20 years since its release and "Lightning McQueen Day" set for 5 September, spectators are in for a striking sight. The latest Mercedes-AMG GT 63 PRO 4MATIC+, Formula 1's first all-wheel-drive safety car, will be unveiled in a livery drawn from the film. This high-tech machine carries out the most demanding safety duties, yet its new, playful look brings a different kind of emotion to a tense sport. The brands are continuing "creating new ways for fans to connect" with their favourite characters. On the asphalt at Monza, this blend of marketing flair and automotive engineering points the future of the sporting spectacle in an entirely new direction.
