Why this is F1 2024’s most controversial car

Показать описание

What looks likely to be F1’s most controversial car of 2024 has been launched with the reveal of Red Bull’s rebranded RB team’s wonderfully titled VCARB 01.

Whether it’s the new name, the new colours, or the new closer Red Bull collaboration, this team has attracted plenty of attention over the winter and that’s not going to change once its 2024 car hits the track.

While the driver line-up of Daniel Ricciardo and Yuki Tsunoda is a familiar one having finished last season as team-mates, that’s about as far as the continuity goes for the team formerly known as AlphaTauri formerly known as Toro Rosso.

Closer ties to the main Red Bull team are the source of obvious grievance among rival teams with McLaren by far and away the most vocal so far, but we expect the complaints to only increase in volume if this car achieves what Red Bull hopes it will.

I guess by the end of the season we'll see if they are low-carb or high-carb.

it has paint
scary and controversial for all the teams that revealed liveries so far

I already wanted to call "VCARB RB" Toro Rosso, their livery makes me feel vindicated for wanting to do so.

Just remember that the only reason this alternative RB team exists is because years ago F1 itself basically begged RB to buy the team. You can't be surprised that a company is just trying to make the best out of it.

Why do we keep forgetting that F1 begged Red Bull to buy the team back in the day

Finally a car without a pre dominant black livery. This season going to be tough to follow with all the cars having similar dark accents

Teams upset about copying the RB19, better look at their own cars again. Seems everyone are working off the RB design!

i love the sidepods, looks sleek and aggressive. i wonder if Mercedes just put the zero/slim pods in the wrong orientation

I have been a supporter of this team since Ricciardo took the seat, and I had a feeling that move was part of something way more important. As for the car, I don't have any doubt it will be a serious contender. I am really looking forward to seeing what it can do on track. Exciting times

Its identity is Torro Rosso, even when Alpha Tauri. Hence the throwback colors.

I do actually love this livery

It feels like a callback to the Toro Rosso liveries from 2017-2019

F1 team companies can own two teams, but they refuse to let Andretti in.

Why people started bothering about this team, this team has been exist from 2006. When the others team copying redbull there's no problem but when this team trying to improve there's a lot of hates.

I’m assuming they did such a throwback livery in hopes that it would mitigate some of the onslaught of frustration fans have with the team, which is annoying because I love how it looks

I think those side pods/engine cover are clearly not simply copy of last years Red Bull. It looks more tightly packaged if anything.

I’d actually look out for how similar to this the new Red Bull looks!
