Red Bull RB9-Renault (pre-launch speculation)

[Nando]

they were off pace by several seconds sometimes in the damp and had quite poor tire life in the first part of the season.
From Hungary onwards i would say overall it was the quickest machine with the Red Bull right behind.

There is one feature I would like to see: sidepod intake opening not only to the front, but also to the top like in a semi naca duct

Scarbs...

Looks like they'll keep the stepped nose and slot.

Interesting gap at the very tip of the nose there, I think

This scaled car has a much lower nose than the RB8
I didnt see the whole video

They just snatched the award from lotus for the most inappropriate colour award with that purple.

No this is an RB9 (with slotted nosestep though); it sports the same new cooling inlet under the airbox intake
