Max Verstappen stepped into his new car for the upcoming Formula 1 season, the RB16B, for the first time last week. With the paint still fresh on the upgraded version of the RB16, Verstappen was also photographed and the first snapshot of it has now been shared by Red Bull Racing.

Red Bull Racing shared the photo via Twitter. Both the photo and the caption don't reveal anything new, except that Verstappen seems to be sitting comfortably. It is not a picture of the whole car, but a close-up of the Dutch driver in the cockpit:

Verstappen's RB16B should make the difference

The RB16B is a modified version of last year's car with only a few changes, but it should make the difference in the coming season, or so Red Bull hopes. Mercedes finished first on many circuits last season, but Verstappen wants to put a stop to that in 2021.
