F1: New season, new wheels – Gulf Digital News

Italian team AlphaTauri revealed in a digital launch its interpretation of Formula 1’s revolutionary new technical rules with the presentation of their 2022 challenger – the AT03.

They are the fifth team to launch their 2022 programme and their AT03 is all decked out in a revised blue and white livery.

The squad scored their highest points tally to date last year; picking up 142 points through Pierre Gasly and Yuki Tsunoda on their way to finishing sixth in the constructors’ championship.

“I am excited to finally reveal what our 2022 Formula 1 car will look like,” said Franz Tost, the team principal. “It is a completely new era for F1 and we hope that this package will be very strong, following last year’s success. Once again, we have worked closely with AlphaTauri (Red Bull’s clothing brand) to launch our new car and I think we’ve managed to deliver something very special.”

Gasly, who scored a podium in Baku last season and finished ninth in the drivers’ standings, added that this year sees a huge change to the car due to the new regulations.

“The look and design is completely different, so the team has had to start from a clean sheet of paper,”
