AlphaTauri has released a fan-favourite helmet-cam video on board with 2021 rookie Yuki Tsunoda at the Imola circuit earlier this week.
The team launched their new machinery for the season ahead back on February 19, showcasing the new stunning all-new matte blue and white livery.
The team is hoping the new set of wheels will help the team to battle it out in the midfield this season with team bosses saying they have full faith in their driver lineup.
Pierre Gasly will return to the driver’s seat alongside F1 rookie, Yuki Tsunoda, and to give fans a taste of excitement ahead of pre-season testing and further, the season opener, the team released the spine-tingling video:
Speaking at the AT02 launch, Yuki Tsunoda, said:
“I’ve been lucky enough to spend some time with Scuderia AlphaTauri ahead of the season, so I’m already developing strong relationships and learning a lot from them – including Pierre, who is an incredible talent.
“My main goal is to learn quickly and deliver results as soon as possible, and I’m really excited to get started.”
Speaking ahead of the season start in Bahrain, Team Principal, Franz Tost said:
“The decision to go for Pierre and Yuki in 2021 was taken because Scuderia AlphaTauri’s philosophy is still to give talented young drivers from the Red Bull Junior Program the opportunity to step up to F1 and to educate them – this is why Yuki now gets his chance.
“With Pierre on Yuki’s side we have an experienced driver, who can help our Japanese rookie to develop faster, but at the same time, we can aim for good results.
“I think this pair is the best possible scenario to achieve both our targets, and I’m also confident this will be a successful one.”
