Racing Bulls S.p.A., competing as Visa Cash App Racing Bulls F1 Team (shortened to RB[10] or VCARB), is an Italian Formula One racing team and constructor that is competing since the 2024 season. It is one of two Formula One constructors owned by Austrian conglomerate Red Bull GmbH, the other being Red Bull Racing.

Known as Scuderia Toro Rosso from 2006 to 2019 and Scuderia AlphaTauri from 2020 to 2023, the team was rebranded to its current name for the 2024 season, during which it was known as RB,[11] and then switching to using its full name (Racing Bulls) starting in the 2025 season.[12][13]

The current CEO is Peter Bayer, and the team principal is Laurent Mekies. At the start of the 2024 season, the team retained incumbent drivers Daniel Ricciardo[a] and Yuki Tsunoda from when it was known as AlphaTauri; Ricciardo was dropped after the 2024 Singapore Grand Prix and was replaced with Red Bull junior and reserve driver Liam Lawson.[b] Lawson was promoted to the main Red Bull team for 2025, with Formula 2 graduate Isack Hadjar taking his place at RB.
