With a bit of luck, the RB style exhaust could work well for Renault if indeed they are heading in that direction. We have seen from Ferrari, Mclaren and Mercedes-Benz that if implemented correctly it reaps rewards. I don't see why Renault should be any different as long as they've managed to make an appropriate floor to go with it. Also, heat shielding shouldn't be a problem as they should be able to carry over what they learnt in that respect by pointing the FEE at the front of the floor. As such I expect we won't see any white diffuser components on the Renault when the new style exhaust is introduced.

I hope they can leap into the sharp end and cause some headaches.

Renault needs a new machinist.
Or some new CAM software.

And people thought the Merc exhaust looked bad...

The Russian and the Hairy Man were close in final times in P2, about a tenth apart...both running different exhaust configurations. I wonder if there is any gain to be seen.

I'm looking for photos of new R31 EBD with better quality...

If it's already as fast as the old exhaust then that should tell that they must ditch the forward exhaust.

I don't see that they have done any changes to the area where the old exhaust was, I wonder if that leaves some development potential.

Sorry FW again but I think there are some unusual and interesting views of it.

Very neat wing and their exhaust looks very clean as well.
