Red Bull RB13 TAG Heuer

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Well Peter Prod was the chief of aero department at RBR so yea!! I always felt he never got the credit he deserved for those cars with Newey getting all the credit. Deep down I feel Peter Prod deserved more credit than Newey did he was more instrumental in those cars.

The pitot tubes provide a clue to the direction of local airflow. So it seems the t-wings are steeply pitched, yet do not appear so in isolation.

The horizontal wing on the barge board looks like it would create lift instead of downforce, is it more for flow conditioning downstream, or am I missing something?
