Stake and Visa. Superb names for Formula 1 teams.

(Granted, people said the same thing about Red Bull when they joined, but still..)

At least out of context of the trademark, “Red Bull” sounds like a tough, angry, charging animal.

“Visa” doesn’t evoke speed; “Visa Cash App” sounds ridiculous. How is anyone even supposed to refer to them? “The Visa Cash Apps looked poor in qualifying today” “the Visa Cash App has DRS now” “the Visa has 5 cards on its wheel display, the first one being the master card” 🙄

Fucking name your team something cool and then do like a Visa livery coloring or something, ugh. “The Visas” sounds like they had issues with passports

I mean, not for nothing, but a blue, yellow and white visa liveried car would be fire in contrast to all of the various shades of black and red cars we have on the grid.
