Police has become an official team supplier of Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport. As a result of this partnership, the brand’s sunglasses and optical frames will be worn by the drivers and the rest of the race team.

The Police logo will be visible on both sides of the helmets of drivers Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas and in the pit garage, as well as appearing on the team’s marketing activities.

Massimo De Rigo, executive vice president of the De Rigo Group, said: “We are extremely proud of this prestigious collaboration between Police, our house brand which we value particularly, and Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport, the historic Formula 1 team. Our determination to work with Lewis as both a brand ambassador and designer presented a unique opportunity to join Police to the sports world once again, and we are proud to be partnering with the strongest team in one of the most popular sports in the world.”

“It’s great to welcome Police to Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport,” said Toto Wolff, team principal and CEO. “We’re delighted to partner with a brand that embodies high quality and attention to detail – two characteristics which are incredibly important in our sport.
