Gotta love the #imsexyandiknowit just underneath the 'KIMI'.

Must say other than the stepped nose, I really like it. The front wing looks interesting, as does the exhaust layout.

Roll on Thursday now, this has certainly gor the juices flowing!
 
Lotus have their exhausts pointing towards the diffuser. I know McLaren and Ferrari had their 2012 exhausts pointing towards the rear tyres but that was a completely different take on coanda exhausts. How did Red Bull's exhaust compare to this?

I think the exhaust layout was pointing at the rear tyres, while the tunnel was for the diffuser in general to help seal it.
 
Seems to me this car is trying too hard to be a Red Bull, look at the rake they reckon they will have...
