Red Bull Racing: Team Thread

the first shot also shoes the front suspension that is crucial to their stability.

there's very few secrets on this car. if people have the money they can copy the vast majority

 

Some awesome details of the RBR floor. I’m sure this will get studied.

 

Question, Perez seemed to be going too fast and the crash inevitable. Consequence was the crane lift, inevitable. Most, if not all, F1 drivers could have not gone into the corner so fast. I am not suggesting anything, but am questioning why this happened. The one circuit were the floor design would be seen by the world.

 

Perhaps this is a decoy floor and Horner told Perez to crash it deliberately so as to let everyone see and think this it the real floor,but the genuine one is back in the garage.

Also, what Verstappen did on those mediums was increadable,no tyre of that grade would be able to last that long,that needs investigating.

 

Perez just over cooked it... and Max did an amazing job on those tyres. It just is what it is.

 

Still think that a pot of yellow paint might be found at the back of the Red Bull garage.

Yellow would cover over white dead easy.

 

wow conspiracy much?

come on.

there's not a bit of that floor that is inconsistent. everyone can see the rear diffuser when they are sat on the grid behind the red bulls. the details on the front of the floor and vanes etc are all known.

what people are seeing is consistency in making air flow, no sharp edges, deep understanding of where the smooth flows go and what they are doing.

 

the cracks are starting to show.

there's been a massive whinge about the value of contracts to newly and horner by marko.

apparently ferrari had both ready to sign and newey was convinced with massive money to stay but according to redbull horner took longer to be convinced and asked for away more money.

very public outing and just goes to show that the budget cap does bite.

 

I thought the budget cap didn't apply to drivers salary or the top 3 highest paid people I think, there was certainly a low single digit number of staff who's salary is exempt.
I wonder if the pressure is coming from the 'new owners'?

 

it could be.

whatever it is this is the last contract either will sign with red bull imo.

 

Wait.. what's going on? What did I miss?

 

I was wondering that too but maybe this was the source of the Hamilton/Ferrari rumour. Newey, Horner, Hamilton being courted by Ferrari?

Obviously if they were, it is not happening.

Now, what is it with Horner when interviewed standing up, feet are some distance apart as if he is man spreading while standing. Is it balance, aggression, image or just Horner, does seem unique to him. Even when he adjusts to face another way, he keeps several feet between his feet.
Not poking fun because it might be a medical thing, like circulation or some kind of nerve damage.

 

See MITO's post above. Not sure the source. "apparently ferrari had both ready to sign and newey was convinced with massive money to stay but according to redbull horner took longer to be convinced and asked for away more money."

 

What has happened to Perez in the last few races? I wonder if set ups were being shared across the two garages but that has been stopped. Consequence being Perez drop in performance.

 

If Checo has another bad race here in Canada,maybe he has reached a crossroads of losing his seat,especially owing to the ruthless and brutal culture at RBR driven by the Helmet.

 

Helmet wanted to keep Alex, look at Alex now, slowly carving a reputation.

 

Was funny people think Red Bull sabotage Perez, why would they do that lol

 

perez looks totally disinterested at this point

 

It may not be the number 1 strat BUT if Verstappen and his dad did not want the set up data shared Red bull would oblige. It has happened in other teams i the past.
