A few hours after the presentation of the McLaren MCL36, in the middle of the weekend that separates us from the long-awaited 7 days for the arrival of other new 2022 Formula 1 cars, AlphaTauri has decided to give to its fans and Formula 1 enthusiasts the first, small teaser of the new car.
It is a photo, a small detail, which however already tells something interesting related to the AT03 which will be officially presented on Monday 14 February, Valentine’s Day, at 12:00 Italian time.
In the shot published on its official social pages, AlphaTauri revealed the strong and colors of the left rearview mirror of the AT03 which will be entrusted to confirmed Pierre Gasly and Yuki Tsunoda. “First glimpse of the AT03”, we read in the short post.
From the photo it is possible to see how the dark and opaque blue that made the AT02 so beautiful will still be present in the livery. White will probably also find plenty of space, so as to recreate the two symbolic colors of the AlphaTauri brand.
A touch of class is the detail on the aerodynamic profile placed above the rear-view mirror, which sports the Italian flag as a reminder that yes, the team’s ownership is Austrian, but that the team considers itself Italian to all intents and purposes.
To see the AT03 we will have to wait another 48 hours. The AlphaTauri team, according to the information gathered by Motorsport.com, should present the real car, so do not imitate Red Bull, which a few days ago limited itself to showing the livery and the new title sponsor on a show car.
From the AT03 it will also be possible to understand a few more concepts of the RB18, because the two single-seaters have the entire rear end in common.
