The AlphaTauri team presented their new single-seater for the 2022 Formula 1 season, the AT03 , with which they will try to cause a surprise on the first course of the Grand Circus after the introduction of the renewed regulations that will try to make the races more exciting and competitive .
Los de Faenza unveiled the coach in a video through their social networks past 12:00 pm in the Spanish mainland, with their pair of pilots present, Pierre Gasly and Yuki Tsunoda.
The minor Red Bull team was the fifth team to show its cards for this 2022 season, after Haas, the Austrians themselves, Aston Martin and McLaren had their day of prominence in the highest category of motorsport. The Italians prepared, as expected seeing their previous performances, an impressive presentation, promoting their clothing brand, at a very good time for all the Japanese public who want to see Yuki Tsunoda succeed in Formula 1.

However, as has also happened with most sets, except Haas, AlphaTauri suffered a leak days before they showed the real design of the AT03, revealing a continuous line with the white and dark blue colors that they wore in their first two years of existence.
As for his drivers, Gasly will be in his fifth full-time season at the Gran Circo, after making his debut midway through the course with Toro Rosso in 2017. The Frenchman will try to continue with his positive dynamics in which he made great classifications in 2021, but which ended up deflating in the race for one reason or another, although he was able to get on the podium thanks to a third position in Baku. However, the Frenchman is the only driver in history to win with AlphaTauri, as he finished first at the 2020 Italian Grand Prix.
“These years we have seen big changes in the cars due to the new rules, and the design and appearance is completely different, so the team has had to start from scratch with a blank sheet,” said the #10 after seeing the AT03.
Tsunoda, for his part, will have a new opportunity with AlphaTauri after his premiere season. The Japanese will want to impress his bosses in the structure of energy drinks to try to one day make the leap with his older brothers and become the first Japanese to win in Formula 1.
“I’m excited to reveal our 2022 car,” said Franz Tost , team principal. “It’s a completely different new era for Formula 1, and we hope to have a strong and competitive car after last year’s success.”
“Once again, we have worked very closely with AlphaTauri to launch our new car, and I think we have managed to make a very special presentation,” he concluded.
