Tomorrow morning AlphaTauri will present the new AT02, but drivers Pierre Gasly and Yuki Tsunoda got a sneak preview of their new car. It seems to have been approved.

Gasly impressed

In a short video on social media, AlphaTauri gave its drivers a first look at the AT02. Of course we cannot see anything ourselves, but Gasly seems to be impressed. "Wow," we hear him say in the video. The rest of us will have to wait a little longer, as the official presentation takes place on Friday morning 19 February at 9:00am.

Fifth place in the championship

With the AT02, the team wants to finally rise to fifth place in the championship. In 2008 and 2019, the team (as Toro Rosso) already finished sixth in the championship twice and last season the team had to make do with seventh place. With the now experienced Gasly and the fast rookie Tsunoda, it might just work out.
