By now you will likely have heard the news that Red Bull’s junior team in Formula 1 has changed its name again. Initially known as Scuderia Toro Rosso when Red Bull purchased the Faenza-based Minardi team in 2006, it operated as Scuderia AlphaTauri (named after Red Bull’s Austrian high fashion brand) from 2020 to 2023. As of this week the team has once again re-branded, this time as Visa Cash App Racing Bulls. It’s a bad name, but it could be so much worse.

Here are 15 worse things that an F1 team could be named. None of these are real, of course, they’re far too bad to be real.

EuroBrun would be a terrible name for an F1 team. Nobody would ever do that. Obviously this is worse than Visa Cash App Racing Bulls.

Onyx like the Pokemon. At least you’d know it was strong against fire types. Bad team name.

Surely there’s no way that a giant company like Mastercard would put its name on a car from a storied racing brand like Lola. And if it did, that car definitely wouldn’t fail to qualify at the first race of the year and then never race again. That sounds impossible.

Spyker, like the Dutch supercar brand Spyker? There’s no way they’d ever buy a Formula 1 team.

If you’re going to start an F1 team that is partially run in Britain and partially run in America, you can definitely come up with a more creative name than British-American Racing. You’d have to.

NART

Certainly one of the most iconic and influential independent racing teams of the 1950s and ‘60s wouldn’t be called North American Racing Team. Just like British-American Racing, it’s just too lazy. And Ferrari definitely wouldn’t protest the decision to exclude the 250LM from competition before it was properly homologated by painting its cars white and blue and having them entered by NART. That sounds like FART.

A teal racing livery just goes so hard. That kind of awesome livery has to come from an exciting team brand, like Beef. It’s What’s For Dinner. Grand Prix Team. There’s no way a Japanese real estate brand called Leyton House did this. It’s too cool.

It’s a Ferrari-powered BMW? I doubt it. There’s no way that car has any BMW parts. Why would it be named BMW? That would never happen.
