Red Bull F1 2024 car launch LIVE: Max Verstappen’s new-look RB20 revealed

Christian Horner subject to Red Bull investigation over ‘inappropriate behaviour’

Red Bull are the 10th and final team to launch their 2024 F1 car on Thursday night – with team boss Christian Horner set to be present despite the current investigation into alleged “inappropriate behaviour.”

The world champions, who won 21 out of 22 races last year, will unveil the RB20 at their HQ in Milton Keynes with Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez also attending the event.

Red Bull are live-streaming the reveal of their car at 7:30pm (GMT) on Thursday evening, with interviews with the drivers and Horner following half an hour later.

Mercedes unveiled their W15 car on Wednesday, with Lewis Hamilton appearing for the first time in public since his 2025 move to Ferrari was announced. Pre-season testing gets underway next week, with the first race of the season in Bahrain on 2 March.

Max Verstappen on Sergio Perez’s future at Red Bull:

“I mean the only thing I would say – and that’s how I work as well – is you just need to focus on yourself, only you can influence that and control that and you can’t control anything else, and also it’s a bit of a waste of energy if you start focusing on these kinds of things

“But now at this moment we are looking forward to this season and I’m sure he is looking to do his best possible job.”

Max Verstappen on his preparation for the 2024 season:

“I’m of course working with a new trainer but what is nice is he has been in F1 for a while so he knows what is needed.

“I think what is most important when you have a long season is managing your sickness because everyone gets sick once a year at least and you try to minimise that and you’re supposed to be on top of things. When you go to certain countries you know what you have to do to be careful not to get sick or whatever because your body is not used to it. Jet lag, travelling, so it’s really always about being well rested.

“It sounds a bit weird, but I’m not 18 any more, with 18 you can do whatever you want, even the day before, but slowly this is changing as well.

“I already started feeling that but I’m sure we’ll come up with good plans here and there with what we have to do.”

Christian Horner reflects on Red Bull future

“I’m absolutely committed to this team. I’ve been here since the beginning, I’ve built this team, there’s been highs and lows along the way – as you’ve seen in some of the videos that you’ve seen earlier.

“We’ve won 113 races, we’ve won seven drivers’ world championships, we’ve won six constructors’ world championships in 19 seasons. And that’s in the history books now, but it’s what lies ahead that’s always important, so my focus is on the future.

“We have an advanced-technology business that’s going to be producing the first-ever Red Bull track car. And of course, there’s an awful lot going on on the campus and investment on the campus that you can clearly see.”

Christian Horner on support from F1 industry

“Look, we’re one team, which… The support from shareholders that I’ve had has been fantastic. I think the support from shareholders following the death of Dietrich Mateschitz, again you can see the commitment that there is: to Formula 1, to Red Bull Powertrains, to advanced technologies, to the track car that we’re producing with Adrian Newey. So yes, I think we’re one team, and that support has been very clear.”
