Alpha Tauri AT01

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.

In the close up of the nose, is that a hole covered with tape of some sort ?
The Rb15 has a hole in the nose so I’m pretty sure this car will too, seeing as it is the Rb15

Basically a rebranded, simplified RB15. Marko just confirmed. Should help them get in the top 5...
If so, the comparison pics should be with RB15 not STR14.
Could someone kindly post comparison with RB15.

Thought so.
What would be the point in covering it though ?

Any possibilities of a slimmer nose later in the season?

Driver cooling, it is already cold enough in Barcelona, so there is no need.

Helmut Marko said maybe in summer, but maybe later or not at all.

Some good runs from Kvyat yesterday, but the first thing Gasly does today is take it for a spin...
That car does seem to be a lot like the RB15 indeed ;)

It's the best source to know the AT01 is the RB15... :?

Pierre Gasly's First Reaction To The Scuderia AlphaTauri AT01

Pierre got his first taste of our new 2020 F1 car, the AT01, last week during our filming day. We mic'd him up for his first lap to get his reaction as he hits the track for the first time ahead of the new F1 season.
