The Toro Rosso STR10 is a Formula One racing car which Toro Rosso is using to compete in the 2015 Formula One season. It is being driven by Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz Jr.

The car was launched on 31 January 2015.[1] Toro Rosso introduced an extensively modified STR10 for the final pre-season tests at the Barcelona circuit in late February, with a shorter nose, new aerodynamics and a new suspension. According to the team's technical director, James Key, this revised STR10 was "actually the 'real' racecar."[2]
