Red Bull Reveal RB13


RED BULL REVEAL RB13

    Red Bull have launched the car most expected to bring the challenge to Mercedes this season.

    The RB13 marks the team’s 13th season in Formula One and is oddly simplistic for such a highly anticipated car.

    Like all the 2017 cars launched so far, the RB13 features a shark fin on the engine cover. Unlike all the 2017 cars launched so far, Red Bull have opted for an interesting nose. The elongated nose has a hole in the tip.

    Is this the car to challenge Mercedes? Probably not, no.

    We’ve yet to see any of the 2017 cars driven in anger, but it’s widely anticipated Red Bull will be the closest to the Silver Arrows this season. However, the Renault engine could be their let down. The team say their power unit has 900 BHP, whilst Mercedes claim to be close to 1000.

    What’s more, the car Red Bull has launched is most likely missing a lot of areo features, especially in front of the side pods, which we’ll likely not see until testing begins in Barcelona. The car that shows up to race in Melbourne will probably be pretty different to the one we’ve been shown.
