(from Red Bull Press
Release) RB4 Launched in Jerez
Just a twenty minute
drive from Red Bull Racing’s Milton Keynes headquarters, the sun is
shining brightly over a nice dry track at Silverstone Circuit.
However, we chose to drive to the southern tip of Europe to launch
our 2008 challenger, the RB4, at the Jerez track, where grey skies
and rain are the order of the day. Despite the wet track, David
Coulthard completed an installation lap early this morning. “It’s
great to see a new car come together,” he commented. “Inevitably, a
lot of parts were still arriving last night, so when I left for my
bed it looked a bit bare, but this morning, there it was in all its
glory! It looks super with lots of nice detail on it and given that
it did its installation lap and came back to the garage, so far we
have achieved all our targets! Now we have to build from there”.
Anxiously watching from
the pit wall was team principal, Christian Horner: “It’s always a
key moment to see a new car run for the first time,” he said. “And
particularly in the case of RB4, that first lap represents a
monumental amount of work from the entire workforce. Over the last
few weeks, all the departments have made Herculean efforts to get
the car ready for this shakedown today”.
