Trackhouse Racing revealed the iconic blue and orange Gulf Oil livery for the first two rounds of the 2025 MotoGP season.
The eye-catching design was unveiled just before the Thailand Grand Prix and will also be seen on the bikes in Argentina next month. Both riders will race in special Gulf-branded leathers, and the team’s garage will be painted in the signature blue and orange colors for both Grand Prix events.
Gulf Oil first teamed up with Aprilia’s satellite team in December, but their logo was only seen on the front wheel cover in the full-season livery released in January.
Justin Marks, founder and owner of Trackhouse Racing, shared his excitement about the partnership: “From the moment I fell in love with motorsport, I’ve admired the legendary Gulf livery in every form it has taken in racing history. It’s an honor and privilege to work with such an iconic brand in MotoGP, and I can’t wait to see these incredible bikes in action on the track,” he said in a report.
Gulf Oil has been a major player in motorsport for decades, and its partnerships have helped create one of the most recognizable liveries in the sport. The brand became globally famous after appearing in the 1971 movie Le Mans.
The company also sponsored McLaren in Formula 1 and Can-Am racing in the 1960s. In recent years, they reconnected with McLaren, bringing back the Gulf livery for a one-off appearance at the 2021 Monaco Grand Prix. After ending their deal with McLaren in 2022, Gulf Oil formed a new partnership with Williams, which featured the iconic colors in Singapore, Qatar, and Japan in 2023.
