The Toro Rosso F1 team revealed their 2015 contender today at an even at the Jerez Circuit in Spain where the first 2015 pre-season test will take place.
The biggest most noticeable change on the car is the nose. No more proboscis monkey nose on the car. Instead the team have a similar nose to McLaren and Ferrari. The other noticeable change is the air intake below the roll hoop. It’s split into two sections with additional intakes further back. Towards the rear of the car we can see a more compact design with a large under cut in the bodywork which allows more air to flow above the diffuser.
“The launch of the new STR10 car today here in Jerez de la Frontera marks the start of a new and hopefully thrilling F1 season,” said Team Principal Franz Tost.
“The 2015 season is a new challenge for all of us. We’ve put a lot of work into the STR10 and we are convinced that we will have a successful year,” he added.
“Our objective is to finish fifth in the constructors championship and we are ready to do our best to achieve it. Our engine partner Renault has also worked very hard to come up with new modifications and I’m sure that our joint effort will give us a package which will certainly be very competitive. All in all, we have a much stronger team as well as a very competitive STR10 and fast drivers; it’s a great combination.”
