Renamed Toro Rosso team unveil new Alpha Tauri AT01 car at Salzburg
The rechristened Alpha Tauri outfit unveiled the team’s 2020 Formula 1 car at Red Bull’s breath-taking and beautiful Salzburg headquarter, the Hangar 7.
At a sensational and spectacular fashion show, the newly-formed Alpha Tauri broke cover off their new car with which the outfit will start its 15th season in the pinnacle of motorsport.
At the end of last November, Toro Rosso announced that the team name would change to AlphaTauri, the burgeoning clothing brand of Red Bull. At the beginning of the launch show, the team presented the fashion brand’s key Spring and Summer looks and a sneak peek at its upcoming collection.
Following the lengthy clothing presentation, the outfit uncovered the new challenger while Team Principal Franz Tost and the drivers emerged on stage to answer the questions of the host of the event, David Coulthard.
In 2020, the team will start the new Formula 1 season with the driver line-up it ended the previous season, meaning that Daniil Kvyat and Pierre Gasly will drive for Red Bull's junior team.
The new car features a completely new livery that incorporates blue and white in a bold fashion. Apart from the striking livery, the car shows aggressive solutions. The team's new name is plastered over the brand-new machine along with some of their sponsors like Moose and myWorld.
The car will make its track debut tomorrow when the team conducts a filming day.
