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.

Looks to me that at least two parts of the upgrade or re-configuration are to move balance slightly forward.

Rear wing and beam wing, I guess if you'd draw a vector of downforce and drag, it might be more beneficial in mechanical/moment terms to load the beam wing heavily rather than the rear wing.

New sidepod slope which drops down more steeply near the rear of the car might move some of the lift rearwards.
