Formula 1 Team, Force India unveiled their 2014 challenger, the VM07 online today.
Aside from a change to a black base colour, Astana logos are found on the side of the new front wing, which is an organisation that was founded to promote the capital city of Kazakhstan.
The city currently has a population of 780,000 and houses the Astana International Airport. It is also home to Olympic volleyball medalist, Larisa Bergen.
The partnership is designed to boost tourism and the local economy within the rapidly expanding and improving city.
The Mexican telecommunications brand Claro can also be found on the engine cover, which follows the announcement of McLaren-reject Sergio Perez as a driver for 2014.
These partnerships were not announced prior to the release of the digital rendering.
Technical Director, Andrew Green stated the rendering of the car was it in "launch spec" and that new updates and innovations throughout the season could be "potentially quite different".
