F1 team Toro Rosso likey to adopt Reult-inspired colours

Sepang, April 3: Automobile manufacturer Reult’s desire for more visibility in Formula 1 could lead racing team Toro Rosso to adopt a yellow livery in the future, Red Bull’s motorsport consultant Helmut Marko has said. Toro Rosso is one of two F1 teams owned by Austrian beverage company Red Bull, the other being Red Bull Racing. Reult provides engine to the Toro Rosso racing team’s cars. Reult has been linked with a possible purchase of the Italian team in recent weeks, with their F1 maging director Cyril Abiteboul admitting in Malaysia that they are looking at a lot of options. Marko, however, said that the most likely option would be a rebranding for Red Bull’s sister team. “Reult are spending a lot of money on this power unit - not as much as Mercedes but a significant amount - and are confronted with the same issues that we (Red Bull) have: their F1 involvement has to pay off,” Marko was quoted as saying by formula1.com on Friday.
