Who is going to send me the physical item(s) if I win?
Fulfillment of the physical signed caps and the ‘ACTION.PACKED.’ box are the responsibility of Red Bull Racing Limited (“Red Bull”). The physical signed caps and ‘ACTION.PACKED.’ box will be delivered by DHL or equivalent national or international delivery service, to the address provided by the winning bidder. Red Bull accepts no responsibility or liability for any delays, damages or other issues with delivery. The maximum delivery term shall be no longer than 60 days from the end of the Auction for the physical signed caps.

What blockchain does Sweet use for the Red Bull Racing NFT Collection?
For Red Bull Racing NFTs, we are using the Tezos standard for NFTs. All of our NFT implementations, regardless of the underlying blockchain standard, will support the same features and user experience, and provide the same benefits of a blockchain-based digital collectible.
What is the Tezos Standard and why is it unique?
Tezos operates a blockchain with a proof-of-stake system. Crucially, this system doesn’t rely on massive computer power. Its demand for electricity is significantly less and it’s far more energy-efficient using approximately 2M times less energy than some other types of blockchains.
What are digital collectibles?
Digital collectibles are technology which can be used by artists, teams and brands to create unique, one-of-a-kind tokens for fans and consumers. Digital collectibles can take on any form: a piece of art, a unique pin, token card or image, an embedded video, audio or animation.
A digital collectible is similar to a physical collectible, but in digital format. Like a physical collectible, a digital collectible is distinguished and unique. To ensure each digital collectible’s unique authenticity, blockchain technology is used to demonstrate rights ownership and authenticity. This is similar to receiving a "certificate of authenticity" with unique physical merchandise like a signed baseball card.
What makes digital collectibles different from physical collectibles?
Physical and digital collectibles have many similar traits, such as strong fan affinity and pride of ownership (otherwise known as “bragging rights” as you show off your collections). However, digital collectibles have many advantages over physical collectibles. This helps to explain the transformation of the collectible space over time and the rapid growth of digital collectibles.
The advantages that digital collectibles have over physical collectibles include:
Prevention of Counterfeits - A digital collectible’s authenticity is more reliable and easier to manage. It can be tied to a Non-fungible Token (NFT), which is the digital equivalent of a certificate of authenticity, and solves a lot of issues around fraud that can occur in the physical world.
Better Storage and Shipping - A digital collectible is easier to store and ship without wear and tear that can occur with physical collectibles.
Better Sharing - A digital collectible has vastly better sharing options if you want to show your collectible or collection to friends, family or the public. You can do so over text, email or a public showcase. You can also present your digital collectible online or in an offline frame that has storage and display capability.
A fan or user can have the same thrill, affinity and enjoyment from owning a digital collectible as owning a physical one, plus all the conveniences of better authenticity, shipping, storage, and sharing.
