The new course of the former Toro Rosso and AlphaTauri, now called Visa Cash App RB Formula One Team, officially began on Monday 12 February, i.e. 3 days ago, on the Marco Simoncelli track in Romagna.
The VCARB 01 made its track debut at Misano Adriatico, the single-seater that the Faenza team presented last February 8th (the 9th in Italy due to the time zone) in Las Vegas.
The VCARB 01 entered the track for the first time under a cloudy sky, which only partially revealed the blue, Yuki Tsunoda wore the helmet prepared for the 2024 season and made the first kilometers on the track.
On the wall are Laurent Mekies, new Racing Bulls team principal in place of Franz Tost, and Daniel Ricciardo. The Australian then took to the track later, but on the same day.
Racing Bulls carried out the first of the two filming days available to it this season, thus completing the 200 kilometers required by the regulations. We remind you that from this year the kilometers available to the teams for each filming day have doubled, going from 100 to 200.
The VCARB 01 took to the track with demo Pirelli tyres, as required by the regulations. The team was thus able to create, in addition to the films for the sponsors and the team's media department, also the first modifications to roughen the car, one of the most awaited of the season due to the many components it inherited from the RB19.
The synergy between Racing Bulls and Red Bull Racing is increasingly stronger, especially this season. For this reason he has already made more than one team principal turn up their noses, perhaps also out of fear of finding himself behind a team that finished eighth in 2023 and is now much more ambitious.
