AlphaTauri may be the big surprise of the 2021 season. It may be because, in Faenza, they are going to use parts of the Red Bull 2020 for their new car and, in addition, without spending any ‘token’ of all those available when evolving the car.
This is possible thanks to the regulation itself and the small print of the same, which has served to ‘turn around’ the text. With changes freezing in the chassis, AlphaTauri will take advantage of the fact that the RB16 parts are homologated to put them in your car.
As AlphaTauri is a Red Bull client team, you can use the parts of said team being ‘old’ … albeit with the few changes that are planned For this 2021 with respect to 2020 that of ‘old’ can be practically new and competitive.
In addition to improving your car without spending anything based on another that finished second in the Constructors’ World Championship, the two ‘tokens’ they have to spend on chassis elements they can use them to improve the new nose and other types of elements.
Of course, this matter has teams like Renault, McLaren and even Aston Martin on edge, They are teams from the midfield that can see how they have a surprise guest in the fight.
In addition, neither Renault nor McLaren are or have a client team in F1, and they will only have two ‘tokens’ to spend on their best. In fact, in Woking they have the ‘advantage’ that they will be able to perform more changes to adapt the Mercedes engine in your car.
Last year, and thanks to the great skill of Racing Point, his car It was called the ‘Pink Mercedes’ because it looks a lot like the 2019 German car. In this case, no problem as AlphaTauri is a Red Bull client team.
Your improvement could be more than remarkable, something that both Pierre Gasly and Tsunoda will appreciate, debutante.
Also, the Honda engine could experience a more than significant improvement. The Japanese face his last year as a biker and they want to go through the front door.
