Looks like they shifted some volume upwards into that central section where the Honda logo is. Notice the Bull part of the sidepod has changed a lot.

The repackaged/resulptured sidepods were already part of last year's Barcelona upgrade package (that not many have noticed)... Although they may have "chiseled" it further, hard to judge from these digital renders...Holm86 wrote: ↑23 Feb 2021, 13:20There's definetly a lot of repackaging under the sidepods.Morteza wrote: ↑23 Feb 2021, 13:12https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Eu6CSd8WYAE ... ame=medium

Look how sidepods slope down earlier, and pay attention to the white HONDA sticker, you can see how much the shape has changed at the back.
It should be noted the Red Bull altered the sidepod shape of their car at some point last season, so a direct comparison a little more difficult to make.Holm86 wrote: ↑23 Feb 2021, 13:20There's definetly a lot of repackaging under the sidepods.Morteza wrote: ↑23 Feb 2021, 13:12https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Eu6CSd8WYAE ... ame=medium

the slot in the cape was introduced in Turkey last year
It would but it is hard to find images with the same angle. These launch images line up (more or less) so are easy to use.SirBastianVettel wrote: ↑23 Feb 2021, 14:48Wouldn't it make more sense to compare the launch pictures of the RB16B with the latest version of the RB16 raced in Abu Dhabi to really see the differences? Because the launch-spec RB16 looks nothing like the one they races at the end of last season.
