Frank Jules, AT&T President Global Business Solutions welcomed today's announcement: "Red Bull Racing has the reputation for being one of the most innovative teams in Formula One, 'leading from the front' and I believe their use of AT&T technology is further proof of that. AT&T has more than a decade of involvement with Formula One and this agreement shows how our technology can provide a real value added component to such a highly competitive sport where fractions of a second can be the difference between success and failure. Our high speed technology will play a key role in supporting Red Bull Racing during the high pressure environment of a race weekend as well as give the team the digital infrastructure they need to run a nimble, savvy and responsive enterprise."
Christian Horner added: "Red Bull Racing is excited to work with an innovative, global and reputable brand such as AT&T. We were already an AT&T customer and, as such, we have experienced the real benefits of the solutions they offer so we now look forward to building on those technologies that will benefit us on track and during grands prix weekends."
