AlphaTauri Boss, Ahmet Mercan said: “The take-over of Rinascente in Milan visually builds the bridge to our engagement in motorsports and AlphaTauri’s launch as a premium fashion brand on the Italian market. It represents the first move of AlphaTauri’s global expansion.”
Red Bull has been growing its very own premium fashion brand AlphaTauri since 2016. Renaming Scuderia Toro Rosso as Scuderia AlphaTauri marks another important milestone in the company‘s global rollout strategy. Additionally, the team will no longer be a ‘junior’ team to Red Bull F1 but will act as a ‘sister’ team.
