Formula One Team Haas F1 to Mint Branded NFTs With Opensea


U.S.-licensed Formula One constructor Haas F1 Team has announced a collaboration with non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace Opensea. As part of the agreement, a collection of NFTs will be produced for Haas while Opensea’s logo will appear on its cars. Opensea to Help American Formula One Team Launch NFT Collection


Leading peer-to-peer marketplace for non-fungible tokens Opensea will create an NFT collection for Haas F1. The collaboration was announced Thursday by Haas, the only American-owned team competing in the FIA Formula One World Championship. In a press release on its website, Haas F1 said: As the ‘Official NFT Marketplace Partner’ of Haas F1 Team, Opensea will work with the team and external collaborators alike in producing a collection of branded NFTs.


The initiative aims to enhance fan engagement, the racing team indicated. “NFTs have the incredible power to unlock new experiences and give us a canvas to bring people together around the things they love in new ways,” added Vice President of Product at Opensea Shiva Rajaraman.


The executive emphasized that the crypto company is looking forward to launching innovative collections with Haas F1 and providing new opportunities for their community of dedicated fans to get closer to the action.


Also under the deal, the Opensea logo will appear on the VF-22 cars, which were designed and constructed by the Haas F1 Team to compete in the 2022 Formula One World Championship.


“We’ve waited to find the right partner in the NFT space and in Opensea we’ve found exactly that,” stated Team Principal of Haas F1 Guenther Steiner.


“To be guided by Opensea on our collections and fan engagement opportunities, we know we’ll be in good hands as they’re not only connected to all the key players but they’re an industry leader with innovation at the forefront of all they do,” Steiner added, commenting on Haas F1’s first steps into the NFT space.


Collaboration between the crypto industry and the popular racing sport has been gaining traction in the past few years. In the summer of 2021, Formula One secured a multimillion-dollar crypto sponsorship deal with Crypto.com, and in early 2022, Red Bull Racing partnered with crypto exchange Bybit. In mid-October F1 filed eight trademark applications covering a range of crypto, NFT, and metaverse products and services in the U.S. Tags in this story Collaboration, Collection, Crypto, crypto company, crypto industry, Cryptocurrencies, Cryptocurrency, Deal, digital collection, f1, Formula 1, Formula One, Haas F1, Haas F1 Team, nft, NFTs, Non-fungible tokens, Opensea, partnership, racing, Sponsorship, Sport, Tokens
