Podcast: What we learned from the Red Bull RB16B F1 car launch

The 2021 Formula 1 team launch season is well underway with Red Bull becoming the latest squad to reveal its new challenger, the RB16B.

The Milton Keynes-based outfit became the fourth team to unveil its new car after McLaren kicked off events at the start of last week, followed by AlphaTauri last Friday and Alfa Romeo on Monday.
