Bengaluru — Formula One champions Mercedes unveiled black-liveried cars for the 2020 season on Monday as part of a public pledge to improve diversity within the team and the world of motorsport.

Mercedes have traditionally raced in silver throughout their time in F1 but will switch to black and have “End Racism” emblazoned on the halo of both cars.
