Just a day after the newly-formed Scuderia AlphaTauri uncovered their brand-new machine, the AT01, the car hit the track at Misano during a filming day on Saturday.
A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.
Perhaps a noob question, but what is stopping them from simply sharing the RB16 documents of the allowed parts Dropbox style? Saves money for RB and speeds up (literally) AT considerably. Maybe they can even then use AT as a roadblock around the pit windows against Mercedes/Ferrari when they get behind them because the AT is the considerably faster and thus in their pit window
True GOATs don’t need the help of superior material to win.
The rear of the car now has more resemblance to the RB15, for example the rear supension, engine cover and it even has the RB15 initial wastegate setup.
Really looking forward to how this car performs. All things seem to be pointing towards a competitive car. I hope Kvyat and Gasly find the driveability agreeable and are able to exploit the relationship with RBR.
