Red Bull's new nose job

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/76306

The nose of the red bull is now much fatter than before! The Force India is definatly the best looking car now! But it does seem to be helping the cars along at the moment.

Re: Red Bull's new nose job

I dont think it looks to bad at all, will be better when we get some more shots rather than that little one as i missed the first practice this morn so thats the only one i've seen.

Re: Red Bull's new nose job

Are those winglets on the side of the nose legal ?

Those are cameras, or at least could be given their shape and size.

Re: Red Bull's new nose job

Forget about the nose... they've totally redone the back end - thats where the bulk of their improvement will be coming from.

Those are the FIA camera pods....on the old nose they were located closer to the suspension A arms.

Re: Red Bull's new nose job

Just saw a rear shot during the race and are they running a centre exhaust on that thing now? when did that change? wonder if it was one of the things they had to change to keep the rear end tight with the new diffuser

Re: Red Bull's new nose job

I spotted the central exhaust in quali too, some real unique bits on that car, how many will copy the pull-rod system for next year? Seems to be getting the job done, 1 second a lap quicker than brawn on a track that should suit them and rubens usually excells at...

Re: Red Bull's new nose job

It does make me laugh how everyone copied the bottom of there lower wing that went to the ground and now they've changed that for something that sweeps in at the bottom and seems better lol
