Been reading the autosport live testing coverage. It seems RedBull have something to hide again, 08:53 Red Bull has been very keen to make sure no one gets too close a look at its new car in testing. 08:52 Webber comes in and the Red Bull mechanics immediately cover the car's rear wing and diffuser. I have my own opinion on this, I hope they get caught with something illegal, I want them to be brought back down to reality and regulations, on a level playing field with the top teams. Although I cannot assume the other teams and trying anything aswell
please log in to view this image The mechanics last year, I just wanted to go up to em and push them out of the way, what is it that makes them so fast? A nitrous tank?
The guy in the middle of that picture really has a good look for doing his 'protecting the back of the RB' job
please log in to view this image McLaren are adopting a different approach, make the car so hideous people can't stand to look at it. RBR aren't hiding anything illegal, the other teams and scrutineers can have a snout round during race weekends, they're not stupid, if they have a device that they need a sheet to hide while they wheel it into the garage it would be so obvious that it wouldn't pass scrutineering. They're just hiding the Infiniti branding to cut down on the hours that the other teams are going to spend staring at it, they're kind like that.
Yup its just there to make the wing load testing rig more aerodynamic. That or its a cover for an auto cannon to blast the opposition off the track
Webber goes to the top of the timesheets with the most erratic stint ever. I think he was trying to disguise the fact he was on the super softs and failed spectacularly.
There's a new rule this year banning mechanics from guarding the back of the car before the race starts
I can see a loophole it that already, I'm fairly sure the RB mechanics can be 'polishing' the back of their car constantly on the grid. Its one of those things which is always going to be very very hard to stop.
Well when you spend half a season whinging about Red Bull and to a lesser extent Ferrari using flexing wings, it's a touch hypocritical to go and do it yourself.
Did they whinge? I thought they just sought clarity. Where they fell down was not 'joining them' soon enough, ie last season when they saw what was happening around them and that others' wings were clearly flexing more than theirs, while still passing all tests. Why wait till now?
God, if I see them polishing the car to cover up the new mechanism they are hiding, I will find a way to the track, then onto the grid and then to the mechanics and then kick the sh*t out of them. All in 20 seconds.
