Toro Rosso was the Faenza-based team that Red Bull created in 2006 by buying the Minardi team, to develop its young drivers. Sebastian Vettel won the 2008 Italian Grand Prix with the team, and Max Verstappen made his debut with it in 2015. It took 3 podiums, including Daniil Kvyat's third place in Germany in 2019 and Pierre Gasly's second place in Brazil in the same year, and started 268 Grands Prix. It was renamed AlphaTauri in 2020.
