Racing Bulls operates as the second team within the Red Bull Formula 1 organization and serves as a platform for developing emerging drivers. The team evolved from the former Toro Rosso and AlphaTauri entries and continues to play an important role in Red Bull’s driver development system.
Based in Faenza in Italy, Racing Bulls combines young driver talent with technical support from the wider Red Bull organization. The team regularly competes in the midfield while helping prepare future Red Bull drivers for promotion to the senior team.
Racing Bulls enters the 2026 season with a young and ambitious driver pairing. Liam Lawson continues to build experience in Formula 1, while Arvid Lindblad begins his rookie campaign after progressing through Red Bull’s junior driver program.
Racing Bulls typically focuses on producing a well balanced car capable of performing across different circuit types. The team often emphasizes aerodynamic efficiency and predictable handling to support developing drivers.
Technical collaboration within the Red Bull organization also allows the team to benefit from shared engineering knowledge and power unit development.
Liam Lawson has already demonstrated strong adaptability during previous Formula 1 appearances. His aggressive race craft and willingness to challenge experienced drivers have helped him deliver competitive results in difficult circumstances.
Arvid Lindblad enters Formula 1 with an impressive junior racing record. His development during the season will focus on gaining experience with tire management, race strategy, and adapting to the complexity of Formula 1 weekends.
Racing Bulls made a strong start to their 2026 season. Lindblad was immensely impressive on debut, first in making Q3 and then securing 8th place on debut is a really fine start. The car looks strong, and will benefit from trickle down developments from Red Bull throughout the season. They could legitimately be the 'best of the rest' this year.
Lindblad Points finish each race. A rookie making Q3 and finishing in the points on debut is exceptional. His price for points finishes each race will be better value than a more established midfield name. The risk is rookie error spikes, but the car clearly has pace.
