Rokt and Oracle Red Bull Racing are both innovative, disruptive, mission-driven enterprises focused on our dedication to diversity, sustainability, and being a force for good in our communities. Our objective is to unlock opportunities, advance the careers of brilliant female athletes, and amplify women’s voices in sports, engineering, e-commerce, and other industries worldwide. We are happy to collaborate with the Oracle Red Bull Racing team in this endeavour. Our cooperation is made even more thrilling because Oracle Red Bull Racing is also creating history this year by launching its F1 car in the US, which is the first time any team has done so.

We’re happy to join Rokt as a Team Partner, and we look forward to working together to bring a more diverse workforce into the sport and the sim racing industry. Within its organization and society, Rokt is dedicated to promoting diversity and empowering women. As one project under our new relationship, we’re happy to collaborate to develop a virtual program to attract female esports drivers.
The Oracle Red Bull Racing Esports squad and the F1 vehicles, driver outfits, and other team material will all have the Rokt logo.
