This doesn't look anything like a B-spec car...yeah the usual "underneath so much has changed"! Mercedes's upgrades look more like a B-spec! Tomorrow we'll know...

The flow conditioner flap (and vortex generator) on top of the sidepods starts a bit more outwards with the Barcelona update. It is covered up by a logo in your picture. https://twitter.com/ScarbsTech/status/8 ... 1197502464

"Major" update... OK, we didn't see the rear yet, so maybe the major stuff is hidden there.

LoL... W08.1+ Is a completely different car, that required a crash test of the nose. This.. what, who are these people that report on things. Im sure Merc was like we have to bring the HAMmer; Ferrari are beating us straight up, and RBR finally got their stuff together... no, no.. the RB13 is still just that, RB14; you havin a laugh. And Ferrari brought slotted bargeboards (maybe a floor) and a FW. I just dont see the effort here on this update, maybe news will come that the delayed PU (indefinitely) also played a role in their roll out.

Visually this update is very disappointing. At the rear it seems they even reverted back to Bahrain spec. Maybe it's time to bring James Key into the A-team to see what he can do with four or five times the money he currently has at TR.

Seriously all this talk of b-spec, introducing a simple car first, etc. even some suggesting a 14, that was never going to happen. Rb for once is just not the chassis monster creators they where in the past, ferrari and merc just did a better job and right now have the momentum that rb lost. Everything moves in cycles so, it had to happen one day. They still create amazing cars

Maybe because they have had windtunnel correlation isseus, they get a baseline first in FP1, and add parts before FP2 and 3?

But based on these pictures it is a fair bit dissapointing, i hope they can challenge Ferrari and Mercedes.
And make this season even more awesome.

Obviously Red Bull weren't going to release a Mercedes style car. That just isn't Red Bulls philosophy. The simplistic design can work, they showed that last year. It has yet to be seen how good, bad or average the updated RB13 is. However, if it turns out to still be off the pace even with a lack of power in mind, then there is indeed reason to question Red Bulls aero approach in the current era.

Rear sidepod design is different.

How come there's no driver name on the side? Unless I'm missing it or didn't read the new rules correctly aren't they supposed to have the first 3 letters on the side of the car?

No view of the front wing? Odd.
