RB's first Formula 1 car has hit the track for the first time, with Yuki Tsunoda shaking the new machine down at Misano.

The team launched its new identity in Las Vegas last week, and travelled to Italy to complete the shakedown, with Daniel Ricciardo and new Team Principal Laurent Mekies also present.

RB follows Haas, Aston Martin, Ferrari, Mercedes, McLaren, Red Bull and Stake F1 in completing the running allowed under the guise of a filming day, with just Williams and Alpine yet to do so before pre-season testing kicks off in Bahrain on February 21st.

But both teams will carry out running before the official start of testing at the Sakhir circuit.
