The Racing Bulls VCARB 02 is a Formula One car constructed by Racing Bulls that competed in the 2025 Formula One World Championship. The car was driven by Yuki Tsunoda and Isack Hadjar, with Liam Lawson (who drove 11 races for the team in 2023 and 2024) later returning to replace Tsunoda from the 2025 Japanese Grand Prix after being demoted from the main Red Bull outfit after the first two rounds of the 2025 season (the Australian Grand Prix and the Chinese Grand Prix). The VCARB 02, which is powered by the Honda RBPTH003 power unit, is the last Racing Bulls car to be powered by Honda RBPT-badged engines; from the 2026 season, Racing Bulls and its sister team Red Bull Racing will utilise Red Bull Powertrains engines.

Technically, the VCARB 02 was slightly improved compared to its predecessor with a new body design, sidepods, ground effect and a boxy airbox shape design. Other parts are visually not interchangeable.

The livery was unveiled on 18 February 2025 during the F1 75 Live event at The O2 Arena along with the other teams. Compared to the previous season, the livery was drastically changed into a solid white paint with a smaller blue charging bull patterns on the rear of the car. The livery was positively received as it was voted by fans as "a fan favourite livery" and mimicking the 2021 White Bull livery used on the Red Bull RB16B at the 2021 Turkish Grand Prix.

In Miami, the cars ran in a special livery inspired by the Red Bull Summer Edition white peach flavour, with the wheel covers representing the top of the can. A graffiti livery was used during the British Grand Prix, and a "chameleon" livery designed to promote Visa's Chameleon Card was run for the United States Grand Prix.

Isack Hadjar finished third at the Dutch Grand Prix, scoring his first podium in Formula One. This was the team's first overall podium finish since the 2021 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, when they were known as Scuderia AlphaTauri.
