For the 2020 Formula One season, there will be no more Toro Rosso from that year onwards. Instead the Faenza-based team will be rebranded Alpha Tauri Racing. Earlier this month, Scuderia Ferrari announced their launch dates for their 2020 challenger. Now, Alpha Tauri will follow in their footsteps and become the second team to announce a launch date. The Italian outfit is set to roll out its new machine on February 14th and it will be piloted by Pierre Gasly and Daniil Kvyat for the second season in a row. According to some sources, the Alpha Tauri team will be present at the Hangar 7 base in Salzburg. It is worth nothing that it will be the first time that the facility has been used for a Formula 1 car launch. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Screenshot-2019-12-19-at-1.48.16-AM.png] For the uninitiated, Alpha Tauri is a branch of Red Bull which primarily deals in the fashion industry. The company was launched in 2016 and has since grown in leaps and bounds, to a point that it is now being represented in Formula One. The team goes into the 2020 season with it head held up high, owing to excellent performances. In their final year under the Toro Rosso name, it finished sixth in the 2019 Constructors’ Championship with two podium finishes as a welcome bonus. In Hockenheim, Daniil Kvyat stunned many when he slotted into 3rd in the changeable weather. Under similar conditions in Brazil, Pierre Gasly [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/pierre-gasly/] showed his former team Red Bull, what they were missing out on. What made his podium even more spectacular was the fact that he won a drag race between himself and Lewis Hamilton. It was actually very poetic, as Daniil Kvyat [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniil-kvyat/] was also a Red Bull reject, and both drivers proved that they have plenty of talent in the tank. 

For the 2020 Formula One season, there will be no more Toro Rosso from that year
onwards. Instead, from its ashes will rise the Alpha Tauri team...

<h2><strong>Toro Rosso: Latest News, Results, Drivers and Car Updates</strong></h2>
The Toro Rosso F1 team are a year younger than sister team Red Bull. Toro Rosso was largely seen as a feeder team for <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/red-bull/">Red Bull</a>. The team were born from the ashes of the Minardi team. When Minardi boss, Paul Stoddart sold his remaining assets to Red Bull?s Dietrich Mateschitz, Toro Rosso was the result.

A number of their former drivers have been promoted to Red Bull, namely, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sebastian-vettel/">Sebastian Vettel</a>, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniel-ricciardo/">Daniel Ricciardo</a>, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/max-verstappen/">Max Verstappen</a>, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniil-kvyat/">Daniil Kvyat</a>, and now <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/pierre-gasly/">Pierre Gasly</a>.

Their driver line-up for 2019 was Russian driver Daniil Kvyat and Thai driver <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alexander-albon/">Alexander Albon</a>.

The team changed the name to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/alphatauri/">AlphaTauri</a> after the 2019 season.
<h2>Best of Toro Rosso</h2>

<h2><strong>On-track Achievements</strong></h2>
The team scored points in their first season, with Vitantonio Liuzzi finishing eighth in USA. Their big break came in 2008 at the Italian Grand Prix.

Sebastian Vettel had stunned many when he nabbed pole position at a damp Monza circuit. He would later convert that into a win, again in the damp conditions. In the process, he broke the record for the youngest pole-sitter and youngest race winner.

To this day, his pole-position record still stands, despite Max Verstappen?s efforts. It also remains as Toro Rosso?s only win in their F1 career. That year, they also had a career-best finish of sixth in the constructor?s championship.

<h2><strong>Toro Rosso?s Sponsors</strong></h2>
Toro Rosso largely share sponsors with Red Bull. For the sake of clarity, their title sponsor is Red Bull, for obvious reasons. Other sponsors include Pirelli, Honda, Siemens, and Casio. On October 19th, 2018, American fast-food giant KFC signed on as a sponsor.
<h2><strong>Charity</strong></h2>
Like sister team Red Bull, Toro Rosso also support Wings for Life Charity.
