Horner: A new chapter starts today

In a statement at the launch, Horner said: "This is a momentous year in the team's history. Over the past 20 years, Red Bull has succeeded in changing the landscape of Formula One and it has done it by being determined to do things differently, by being committed to playing hard and racing even harder and by being utterly focused on competing for the biggest prizes in the sport.

"We’ve been lucky enough to do that on multiple occasions and seven drivers’ titles, six constructors’ championship wins and 113 race victories to date demonstrate the success of Red Bull’s vision for the team. The latest chapter of that story starts today with the RB20.

"It’s going to a thrilling and hugely competitive season but as we saw last year, this is a team operating at the peak of its powers and in Max and Checo we have two drivers who can deliver at every circuit, in any conditions, so I’m confident that, just as we have done for the past 20 years, we can compete for podiums, wins and hopefully more championships."
