Scuderia Toro Rosso launched their 2019 challenger, the STR14, in an online launch on Monday night.

New Thai-British driver Alexander Albon and the returning Daniil Kvyat got to show off this season's car that will share the rear part of the car with Aston Martin Red Bull Racing as they both utilise a Honda power unit.

The gearbox, rear suspension and some front suspension parts, together with electronic and hydraulic components, will also be shared technically.

Albon, 22, said: "The way I've gone about my career and my racing is I never set any goals on anything. Every year, it was just each race, take it step by step, focus and race in that session, whether it would be practice, qualifying or the race."

Kvyat, 24, added: "Like everyone else, we are working hard to put the best package together and the best thing I can do for myself is to work as hard as possible on myself and on my performance."

Team Principal Franz Tost said: "We don't want to set a specific target, at least not now. All things considered, the quality of the synergies with Red Bull Technology, the belief in our very high level of in-house technical knowledge, the impressive development trajectory Honda has shown so far, and the couple of strong young drivers we have available make me feel confident."
