Red Bull 2019 F1 auto launch

F1 in 2019: Max Verstappen debuts deceptive Red Bull RB15

Red Bull took four straight double titles at the start of the decade but has taken only a handful of wins in most years of the hybrid era, frequently pinning its deficit on erstwhile supplier Renault.

The auto was launched in a striking dark blue and red colour scheme which the team confirmed was just for the RB15's first shakedown at Silverstone on Wednesday.

The 2019 Red Bull vehicle is the first to be made since the former world champions formed a partnership with new power providers Honda.

Red Bull's RB15, with special livery, is steered around Silverstone by Max Verstappen.

"Progress is obviously our target", Horner said.

Red Bull have unveiled a striking new livery design on a vehicle they hope will fire them towards a first championship success in six years.

Verstappen has won five races in the two and a half years he's spent at Red Bull Racing.

"I am very excited to get started as the off-season has been quite long", Verstappen said earlier. "It felt good and we had no problems, so very happy with that". "I really want to feel how it upshifts, downshifts, how the drivability is, how much power there is".

Red Bull will begin the campaign, which starts in Australia on March 14-17, without Renault power for the first time in 13 years as Honda step up into the limelight after a development season with Toro Rosso.

"We are expecting a lot from Honda and are positive, but it will not be flawless from race one".

"I want to get the best out of myself, but you have to see what the vehicle and engine are going to do".

"At the moment I am of course very optimistic, but also realistic". While they will need to give Honda some time before they can realise their true potential, the data has already been very promising. "So I think it will take time, but both Red Bull and Honda have the same targets and I'm sure they will manage to achieve what they want".
