Red Bull RB16B

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.

Maybe it’s thinner? Is that what we’re looking at here?

Yeah, thinner middle section for increase of diffuser size.
Overall, quite extensive upgrades.

Thought so. Slightly different perspectives, but I think it’s pretty clear. Thanks for posting.

And agree - very nice, cohesive upgrade package.

It always amazes me how strong they can make these really thin pieces be to withstand the amount of air and the aero forces they will be under. Amazing stuff!

I was watching a slowmotion when Perez go over the curbs in lap 48 when he tried to overtake Stroll and the front half of the car falling on the front wing while the wing crashes on a yellow banana curb. Incredible what this two small front wing mounts withstands.
