F1 drivers turn designers for Wings for Life

Red Bull Racing drivers design their own t-shirts to support the Wings for Life foundation:

Red Bull pilots Vettel and Webber deliver proof of their extraordinary skills and talent on the race track every day; now they have entered new terrain. Ambassadors of the Wings for Life foundation, the two racers proudly present t-shirts with their signature designs as part of the “Wings for Life S Collection”, which was launched in favour of the Wings for Life foundation. The  net proceeds from the t-shirt sales will be used to support promising research projects dedicated to finding a cure for paraplegia. The coveted garments are now available to purchase in the Wings for Life online shop.

Mark Webber talks about his t-shirt design:

“I’d been thinking for a while about what kind of design I wanted to do for the Wings for Life foundation. Finally, I found that the formula 1 tyres with wings were quite a cool idea. Because Wings for Life is pushing towards a progress in spinal cord research just like Red Bull gives wings to motorsport”

Hi Mark, I’ve ordered your shirt online and have received it. The shirt is very nice, comfortable and the tyres with wings is a very creative idea. At the back is even your signature. A must have for every fan of you. Enjoy your holiday! Angela from Germany
