Helmut Marko on Red Bull's 'optimism' for 2019

Helmut Marko has commented on the shakedown of the new RB15 and believes that it went smoothly. Red Bull revealed their car earlier today at Silverstone and were one of three teams to reveal their new look for 2019 with Mercedes and Racing Point also unveiling their cars for 2019 today.

When speaking to Auto Bild, Marko said that everything went well.

"The RB15 has again become a typical Newey car. The cooling inlets are coordinated with Honda. The car drove smoothly during the shakedown from the first moment", said the Austrian.

He also said that there is a positive atmosphere at the factory as "everyone in Milton Keynes is optimistic and euphoric."

Red Bull will hope that their new partnership will go well and that they improve on the results they got when they were with Renault.
