The STR10 no longer features the Gonzo style nose as the
team have gone for the more conventional front nose look for 2015.
Speaking about the new challenge he faces entering Formula One
as the youngest ever driver in the history of the sport, Max Verstappen stated:
‘With two days in the 2014 car at the Abu Dhabi
test and the Friday mornings I did last season, combined with time spent in the
simulator, I feel well prepared and I'm really up for this challenge, which is
very exciting.’
He went on to say:
‘Six days on track here in Spain and then it will
be time to head for Australia and my first grand prix, something I have been
looking forward to ever since I started karting.’
Carlos Sainz Jnr commented on
the opportunity that he has been given by Red Bull saying:
‘I am very happy to be making my first official
appearance as a Formula 1 driver here in Spain and I am looking forward to
trying the car for the first time tomorrow.’
The Spaniard went on to say:
‘I have worked very hard over the winter on my
personal fitness, as well as spending time in Faenza to familiarise myself with
the team, having also done some days in the simulator. Now we have just 12 days
to prepare for Melbourne, so going through all the race weekend procedures will
be a priority for me, as well as putting in as many miles as possible behind
the wheel.’
