Red Bull B-team AlphaTauri not going through their best moment. While last year they were sixth in the Constructors’ World Championship with 120 points (and fighting in the last races with Alpine for fifth place) in 2022 they are penultimate.
That, added to the current bad economic situation of the Formula 1has resulted in rumors about a possible sale of AlphaTauri by Red Bull.
Nevertheless Helmut Marko, advisor to Red Bull, has been responsible for denying these rumors. “The team is doing well and there is no need on a financial level to sell the team. There is more a need to bring them back to a higher level in sporting terms,” Marko told ‘Auto Motor und Sport’.
With this, confirm that they will not sell AlphaTauri. Yes, she said that after the death of Dietrich Mateschitzfounder and team owner Red Bullthey would change some things, but he assured that “Red Bull Racing is the marketing tool strongest and most efficient of the group”.
So much so that Red Bull confirmed that it was going to build a new wind tunnel, which will be available for use between the years 2024 and 2025.
The Austrian team has returned to the Golden season that remembers the one they had with Sebastian Vettel between 2010 and 2013, with the victory of the last two world championships by Max Verstappen and the revalidation in 2022 of the Builders World Cup.
