Red Bull RB20

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.

Doesn't look like a particularly big update given how excited the team/insiders have sounded so far?

Not every team takes the car presentation document declarations as seriously as the others. It's not gospel.

While the adjustments may seem subtle, the combined effects of better downforce from the floor edge and more efficient aerodynamics from the engine cover could lead to a significant performance and stability boost.

I'm pretty sure they have brought an upgrade to the diffuser it's just not listed

Safe to say there's more than what's declared

Not good, but best I've found so far. Very peculiar RW/BW combo, max BW size and "only" medium RW size

And they call it a stall. A STALL!

Floor inlet and strakes don't seem to have been changed for a while?

Verstappen's car 18.10.24 - photo from Nicolas Carpentiers

Looks similar if not the same as the Frankenstein Baku floor to me

I think we can't figure out whose car it is, can we? As Checo mentioned, he hasn't the latest floor compared to Max.
