A lot has changed since Sebastian Vettel won the 2008 Italian Grand Prix for the ex-Minardi team.
Still Red Bull owned, the Faenza-based team can no longer stand on the shoulders of its parent team and has had to become a constructor in its own right. Ben Butler joined over the winter as chief designer to work with technical director Giorgio Ascanelli, and the result is an evolution of last year's car.
In tough circumstances, this year is all about achieving respectability.
