Alpha Tauri have unveiled their eagerly anticipated, AT01 as they begin a new chapter after changing their name from Toro Rosso. Franz Tost insists the team are hungry for more of the success Toro Rosso had last season.

Pierre Gasly and Daniil Kvyat both scored podiums for the team last season as they pushed Renault all the way for fifth place in the Constructors' Championship. The team will be hoping the AT01 will propel them to more success next season. 

Franz Tost believes the team will be hungrier than ever for more good fortunes and they want to build on the technical developments of last season.

"In 2019, we had a very successful season with two podiums and finished 6th position in the Constructors’ Championship, it was a fantastic year for us and our best season since 2008," Tost said.

"We are satisfied with our achievements, but now we are hungry for more, we made excellent progress on the technical front and in terms of how we manage the race weekend, so we intend to build on that to improve further.

"2020 will be a special challenge for all the teams, as we have to develop two car concepts because of the new regulations for 2021."
