Haas Unleashes Godzilla-Themed Livery for the United States Grand Prix
Haas is bringing Godzilla to Austin with a special “Godzilla Minus Zero” livery for the 2026 United States Grand Prix. The one-off design adds light blue accents and bold patterns to the VF-26 cars of Ollie Bearman and Esteban Ocon, giving the team a distinctive look for its home race weekend.
The release continues Haas’ season-long collaboration with TOHO CO., LTD., the Japanese entertainment studio behind Godzilla, and celebrates the upcoming film.
Austin marks another chapter in the partnership following Haas’ first Godzilla-themed livery at the Japanese Grand Prix.
That earlier design worked within the team’s core white, black and red color scheme. For the United States Grand Prix, Haas expands the palette with splashes of light blue, giving the latest edition its own visual identity.
Bold patterns add to the transformation, bringing the film collaboration onto the car through a more expressive graphic treatment. The result gives fans a second interpretation of the Godzilla theme within the same season.
The “Godzilla Minus Zero” design connects Haas’ race-weekend appearance to the upcoming film release, using the VF-26 as a moving canvas for the collaboration.
A special livery gives the partnership visibility throughout the event, from garage photography and close-up detail shots to the cars competing on track. Additional team activations will support the Austin appearance, extending the collaboration beyond the bodywork.
For Haas, the release also demonstrates how an entertainment partnership can create multiple distinct looks. The Japanese Grand Prix introduced the concept in familiar team colors, while Austin brings a fresh palette and a new film-focused direction.
Bearman and Ocon will both race the special edition at Circuit of The Americas, one of three American stops on the team’s calendar alongside Miami and Las Vegas.
The home-race setting gives Haas an opportunity to make a visual statement in front of its American supporters. With light blue accents, bold graphics and the Godzilla connection, the VF-26 will bring a cinematic edge to the Austin grid.
