Red Bull Racing has confirmed the launch date of its 2019 challenger, which will be unveiled on February 13.
The Milton-Keynes based outfit will head into 2019 with a new power unit supplier in the form of Honda in the back of the RB15.
The four-time constructors' champions will also feature a new driver in their line-up with Pierre Gasly making the step up from Toro Rosso to join Max Verstappen, after Daniel Ricciardo's shock decision to leave the team for Renault.
Red Bull finished third in last year’s Constructors’ Championship with 419 points, claiming four victories along the way in China, Monaco, Austria and Mexico.
With Honda joining the team after a fractious 12-year relationship with Renault, Red Bull is looking to challenge Ferrari and Mercedes for the top honours with the Japanese manufacturer behind them.
February 13, the date of their launch, will be a busy one with two other teams choosing the same date to unveil their cars; Racing Point and Mercedes.
