Red Bull And Toro Rosso’s New Home Away From Home Takes 32 Hours To Build

Aston Martin Red Bull Racing and Scuderia Toro Rosso have unveiled their brand new Energy Station, a home away from home set to act as a joint base at the upcoming Spanish GP, as well as eight other European races this season.

According to Red Bull, it takes a full 32 hours to erect the structure, with a contingent of 25 workers, who can then dismantle it even quicker when it’s time to pack up and leave.

Built using sustainably sourced Austrian timber, the structure covers 1,221 m2, is 32 meters (104.9 ft) long, 14 meters (45.9 ft) wide and stands 11 meters (36 ft) tall. It’s also energy efficient, with its natural convection design intended to eliminate the need for air conditioning.

Inside, there are no fewer than 59 TV screens, 32 km (19.8 miles) of cables and 211 m2 of artificial grass carpeting, while the kitchen will produce 100 kg (220 lbs) of pasta, 120 kg (264.5 lbs) of fish and 180 kg (396 lbs) of meat per race weekend.

“We’re changing the game again with the unveiling of the new Energy Station, better known in Austria as the Holzhaus. It’s a sustainable structure that brings a touch of the Styrian Alps to the F1 paddock, having been designed to meet the current and future needs of ourselves and Toro Rosso. If it sees half as much drama as the old Energy Station, it will be doing well!” – said Red Bull team principal Christian Horner.

Following the Spanish Grand Prix, the new Energy Station will be deconstructed and transported to Monaco, where it will be rebuilt on a floating barge.
