Whispering Angel has expanded its role as the Official Rosé Partner of Formula 1, with further activations confirmed at major races throughout the 2025 season.

The announcement comes as Formula 1 marks its 75th anniversary, with Whispering Angel building on its involvement at races including Miami, Emilia-Romagna, Monaco, and Barcelona. The brand will now activate at Silverstone, home of the first-ever Formula 1 World Championship race in 1950, as well as other key events including Spa, Monza, Singapore and Las Vegas.

Whispering Angel, produced by Château d’Esclans in Provence and founded by Sacha Lichine, has been a staple in F1’s Paddock Club hospitality for 15 years. The new partnership formally integrates the rosé label into the F1 calendar as a central lifestyle and hospitality brand.
