“Working with the Xbox team to bring alive the incredible Indiana Jones and the Great Circle livery for the United States Grand Prix has been fantastic,” says Oliver Oakes, BWT Alpine Formula One Team, Team Principal. “The new look will be right at home in the Austin setting this weekend. In the past year, our partnership with Xbox has reached new heights and this is our biggest activation yet. There’s even more to come and I’m looking forward to getting my hands on a copy of the game when it comes out.” 

We began teasing this collaboration with an epic real-life road trip. It all started in Los Angeles at a twilight-lit shipyard, where an Indiana Jones and the Great Circle-themed semi-truck set off, carrying a mysterious crate. Along its journey, the truck made stops at iconic U.S. landmarks like Las Vegas, Hoover Dam, Bonneville Salt Flats, and White Sands National Park, before arriving, shrouded in secrecy, at the Circuit of the Americas during a breathtaking sunset. There, the crate was finally opened to reveal its special cargo. To relive this incredible journey, visit the social channels of BWT Alpine F1 team, Bethesda, MachineGames, and Circuit of The Americas (COTA).
