Red Bull launches 2021 F1 car
Red Bull has launched the car it hopes will take the fight to Mercedes in this year's Formula One world championship.
The RB16B, which is based on last year's RB16, was revealed in an online launch ahead of its first track outing at a filming day at Silverstone on Wednesday.
The car carries the hopes of 10-time race winner Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez, who replaces Alex Albon at the team this year.
It is the last Red Bull that will be powered by a Honda-badged engine ahead of the Japanese manufacturer's withdrawal from the sport at the end of the year, although the team has struck a deal to continue to use Honda's power unit technology beyond 2021.
