Scuderia Toro Rosso, it's official

By on

The old Minardi team, which is now owned by Red Bull, has been renamed Scuderia Toro Rosso for next season. Red Bull Racing officially took charge of the team in early November and had originally named it Squadra Toro Rosso.

The name still means Red Bull Team in Italian but Scuderia means stable, as opposed to squadra, which is more commonly used by football teams. The two teams' combined line-up is Neel Jani, David Coulthard, Scott Speed, Vitantonia Liuzzi and Christian Klien. Briton Coulthard and Klien are almost certain to stay with the senior team. Speed and Liuzzi are expected to join forces at Toro Rosso, with Jani likely to become the third driver at Red Bull.
