Red Bull Considering Selling AlphaTauri

Red Bull is reportedly considering selling its AlphaTauri Formula 1 team, according to a report from Motorsport.com and The Race. The report claims that Red Bull is looking for a buyer who can help the team to improve its performance on the track and in the commercial arena.

The report comes as a surprise to many, as AlphaTauri has been a successful team in recent years. The team has won two races since it was rebranded from Toro Rosso in 2020, and it has finished in the top five in the constructors’ championship in each of the past two seasons. However, the report claims that Red Bull is unhappy with AlphaTauri’s performance in 2023. The team has struggled so far this season, and it is currently sitting in ninth place in the constructors’ championship.

Red Bull has not yet commented on the report, but it is likely that the team will be looking for a buyer who can help AlphaTauri to improve its performance and reach its full potential.

The report from Motorsport.com is not the first time that there have been rumours about Red Bull selling AlphaTauri. In 2021, there were reports that Red Bull was in talks with a potential buyer, but the deal ultimately fell through. It is unclear why Red Bull is now considering selling AlphaTauri. The team has been a successful part of the Red Bull family for many years, and it is hard to see why Red Bull would want to sell it.

However, it is possible that Red Bull is simply looking to focus on its main team, Red Bull Racing. Red Bull Racing is one of the most successful teams in Formula 1, and it is possible that Red Bull wants to give the team its full attention.

The sale of AlphaTauri is also being overshadowed by the death of Dietrich Mateschitz, the co-founder, and former CEO of Red Bull. Mateschitz died on May 20, 2023, at the age of 81. Mateschitz was a visionary businessman who helped to create Red Bull into the global brand that it is today. He was also a passionate supporter of Formula 1, and he was instrumental in the creation of Red Bull Racing. The death of Mateschitz is a major loss for Red Bull, and it is unclear how the company will move forward without him. However, Mateschitz’s legacy will live on in Red Bull Racing and AlphaTauri.

In addition to the death of Mateschitz, Red Bull is also facing a leadership change. In April 2023, Red Bull announced that CEO duties will be taken over by Oliver Mintzlaff, who is currently the CEO of Red Bull’s football division. Mintzlaff does not come from a racing background, and it is unclear how he will approach the role of CEO of Red Bull Racing. However, he is a highly experienced businessman, and it is likely that he will bring a new perspective to the team.

In addition to the reports of Red Bull selling AlphaTauri, there have also been reports that a consortium of F2 and F3 teams is interested in buying the team. The consortium is reportedly willing to pay $700 million for AlphaTauri, which would make it the most expensive sale in Formula 1 history. The consortium is led by Campos Racing, which is one of the most successful teams in F2. The consortium also includes other F2 and F3 teams, as well as investment firms. It is unclear if Red Bull will accept the offer from the consortium, but it is a sign that there is interest in buying AlphaTauri.

Another potential buyer for AlphaTauri is Honda. Honda was the engine supplier for Red Bull Racing from 2019 to 2021, and the two companies have a close relationship.

Honda is currently in the process of Partnering with Aston Martin with an engine deal, but it is possible that the company could buy AlphaTauri as a way to stay involved in the sport.

The sale of AlphaTauri is still in its early stages, and it is unclear who the potential buyers are. However, the reports suggests that Red Bull is looking to sell the team but the higherups at RedBull have denied the any rumours but it is possible that a deal could be made in the near future. Formula one as a sport can be uncertain at times. We have to lookout for any more updates regarding the Sale.
