The former Formula 1 driver, who is now an ambassador for Red Bull, recently unveiled the team’s new car at their base in Milton Keynes. However, before the official launch, the RB20 was seen at Silverstone for a test run. Now, David Coulthard has shared the important feedback provided by both drivers after they had a chance to experience the new vehicle.
Coulthard, a former Scottish F1 driver who has been associated with the team since its early days, had a conversation with the drivers following their initial runs. He revealed the details shared by the drivers about the car’s characteristics.
The 52-year-old driver provided insights into how the drivers felt about the car’s different features. The drivers found the car to be logical and didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. They were pleased with the development of the car and the team was satisfied with the changes. Last week, the team introduced a completely new car design, drawing inspiration from the previous year’s model. The drivers expected the car to feel different based on its appearance, but they were pleasantly surprised by the driving experience.
Coulthard, who has extensive experience as a driver and strong ties with the Austrian manufacturer, also mentioned that there could be multiple contenders for the championship title in 2024. He stated that if they can improve their pace on race day, Red Bull has the most potential among all the teams. However, other teams like [Team A] and [Team B] are not far behind and showed significant progress throughout the previous season.
As Red Bull prepares for the upcoming season, they appear to have an advantage over the competition, given their strong performance last year. However, any team could catch up during the winter break and potentially disrupt Red Bull’s dominance in Austria.
