Successful start to 2024
L'excellent start to the season for Racing Bulls – the second team owned by the Red Bull 'family' which changed its name this year after already racing under the banners of AlphaTauri and Toro Rosso – has reignited rumors of a possible future sale of the stable. The issue also fits into the complex power dynamics that have been taking place for months now within the galaxy of the Austrian energy drink giant.
The team is currently sixth in the Constructors' standings after four GPs and above all has returned to being the best among the second tier teams – those outside the 'fantastic five' – thanks also to ever greater synergy existing with the 'first team'. The team is based in Faenza, having inherited the structure that belonged to the historic Minardi team, but by now the gaze is increasingly oriented at an international levelas evidenced by the controversial Visa CashApp sponsorship.
There is no shortage of buyers
There would therefore be no shortage of potential buyers, also because the opposite events of Audi-Sauber and Andretti have confirmed once again how much simpler – for those who want to enter Formula 1 – to acquire an already existing team rather than trying to put together an 11th team. The same Helmut Markointerviewed by the Austrian site OE24admitted that there would be no shortage of potential buyers for RB.
“There are many interested – revealed the 80-year-old manager from Graz – But in the end the final decision rests with the shareholders. The price is high for a racing team, but nothing has been decided yet“.
