Mercedes replaces much of the W17’s silver with blue for US Grand Prix

Mercedes will run the W17 in a special blue livery at the United States Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas. Blue replaces much of the car’s usual silver and appears on the nose and sidepod accents.

The livery is a collaboration with MANUFAKTUR, Mercedes-Benz’s personalisation programme for exclusive vehicle colours and finishes. The new look arrives two rounds after the team’s previous special livery: for the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia, the W17 was largely emerald green, in the colour of title sponsor Petronas.
