Red Bull RB22

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.

In someways they've gone back to spec 1 with the sidepod width and less undercut, but they replaced the coke bottle at the rear with the waterfall slides.
Pretty shocking but I believe it is evolution. Spec 1 was unusual in the sense that it was very narrow at the inlet and had protruding SIS significantly.

Unable to see this, even if I paste the link directly in my browser. Gets timed out. Probably some fencing w.r.t autoracer.it (even if I allow insecure content).
If possible, kindly save this picture into an image sharing platform (say imgbb ?) and post that link here.

Front bib also changed (now fully enclosed, see Rosalio Giuliara Design pictures on Insta)

- Is front suspension new, or just the fairings?
- Where is the new front wing that was tested in fp1 in Barcelona?
- Are wheel rims new?

Looks like new wheels.

Old. Poor picture but you can just distinguish the differences in the bottom left.

another angle of a change to front suspension fairings. Maybe hints at deeper chnges in this area
The inlet undercut actually looks slightly deeper here, the sidepod just widens more farther down.

New bib second image. Also in the first image there's a good picture of the old rims.

Thanks for posting.

Looks like the old rims are still used for rear tyres.
