Red Bull Created A 15,000 RPM Hypercar - The V10 Is Back!

[@EngineeringExplained]

After five whiteboard videos in a row, I was getting a little bored and changed up the format for this one! Nothing is permanent (the whiteboard always finds a way back), I just enjoy switching it up from time to time! If you enjoyed this video style, you may like a previous video presented in the same manner: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHnPhqBtmb2ka9U Always happy to hear feedback! Enjoyed it? Hated it? Let me know your honest opinions! Apologies on the toolbox flex; I'm clearly filling it with the good stuff.

[@chiefbedroom553]

@EngineeringExplained Love it I was wondering if the tires are actually an even bigger problem, since weight distribution in corners is not 50/50 right and left. Is the tire rating including this as a margin or does it have to be included in your own calculations?

[@mofayer]

Love it! Love the big white boards and small white boards!

[@ryandoyle4357]

Insurance

[@Dqtube]

The whole purpose of this car is not in Newey's dream, but a way to spend more money and time in the wind tunnel, CFD and other resources that are very limited in F1. RB was just jealous of Ferrari, McLaren and Mercedes for not having the same way to hide some of these costs as these companies.

[@User-dd2xv]

that is partly true, I am surprised Mercedes drop ball by building a GT car with an f1 engine.

[@lukew6725]

I never thought about it that way, that's really clever.

[@456MrPeople]

All of the data sharing between F1 teams and road car divisions is monitored by the FIA, although I'm sure teams have figured out some kind of loophole somewhere.

[@F1ll1nTh3Blanks]

Adrian Newey also likes building F1 inspired sportscars, so there's that too.

[@F1ll1nTh3Blanks]

​@@User-dd2xv Not really. Even that feat alone was incredibly difficult to achieve, because the modern F1 engine is just way too complicated to get in a road car, that alone swallowed up a lot of budget and development hours, even then, the car today is still somewhat compliant compared to the Valkyrie, which has all the optical functionality of driving and prototype racer on road legal tyres.

So much more appreciation for the insane details of the car. Listened to the designer talk about some of the points when unveiled but the way it was explained/framed really puts it into perspective

[@steamhackman]

I went from thinking this was just another new hypercar to... wow. It really is on par (or beyond?) an F1 car. I fell back into childhood awe as you further explained how mind blowing this car is.

[@alvinnieves590]

One thing to consider about the Valkyrie: the initial intent was to also use it for WEC in the Hypercar category. AM pulled out early from the class as they were complaining that nobody was interested in buying their car for the Hypercar class. Considering that this class was also intended for customer teams as well, this was a big deal. Probably this explains why AM didnt give Adrian Newey carte blanche on the design.

[@lodgecav490]

I think Newey is looking for a new formula, maybe inverted😊

[@DuvJones]

No. He, like Aston Martin, idolizes Le Mans. He wants to go, have a design tackle the 24hr race and win in the top class. There are many considerations to the RB17 that are derived from the LMH spec that don't make sense otherwise (like the road tire limit, or the fact it is on a set of Michelin's like every car in the hypercar/GTP class, the fact it is a two-seater), much like the Valkyrie (which is about to have a go at it). I think that part of the reason that he dipped is that he could not convince RB racing to have a go at it (which is fair, endurance racing is a different kind of challenge), on top of the Horner problems. We'll see what the future holds, but I think that he wants his piece of the golden era of sportscars. I would not be shocked if he signed with Aston with that in mind.

[@F1ll1nTh3Blanks]

​@@DuvJones I think this is the real reason he's looking at Aston Martin again. Everyone is yappin about F1 but no one acknowledges that one of the things he loves most is sportscar racing he's always wanted to bring the two worlds together right at the top. If he could make the Valkyrie win Le Man's, guarantee now, he will say one of his biggest achievements is building a road car that wins one of if not the greatest racing spectacle on the planet, even above some of his F1 championships.

[@DuvJones]

@@F1ll1nTh3Blanks That is the thing, Hypercar (and IMSA's GTP) class has gotten a real foot hold on anyone watching motorsport since 2023. It just keeps growing. I can see him wanting a piece of that, and with the extension to 2029, I figure that if he want in on the "New Golden Era of Sportscars", now is the time.

[@armadillolover99]

Is this a reference to Scott Mansell’s upside down car project? Because that would be the most awesome thing ever if they could get Adrian in on that, it’ll never happen though.

[@armadillolover99]

@@F1ll1nTh3Blanks I think he sees what Gordon Murray achieved with the McLaren F1 and now with his own company. Newey wants some of that action.

[@NoOne-ef7yu]

EE has evolved from "car scientist" into "mildly unhinged car scientist". And I love it!

That engine from Cosworth all started with Gordon Murray and his spec for the T50. There's some great videos about how they went about designing and building it.

[@jase6370]

no , the aston martin valkyrie was long before it

[@armadillolover99]

I’m pretty sure I read somewhere that the engine in the T.50 evolved from one of the 3 cylinder prototypes that was used in development of the Valkyrie’s engine.

Actually, the real reason why Aston Martin and RB have built these hypercars is that they could send the same people who deal with aerodynamics in their F1 team to do all the wind tunnel stuff, but outside of the budgets cap of the F1 team.

@@llavero5 No, the cylinder configuration matters most, v10 particularly have a sense of specific harmonics that come into play, which is why they sing so nicely. A v10 does this even at lower rpm's. Yes the high RPM's are the cherry on top, but a 2 cylinder reving to 10k does not nearly sound as good as a v10 reving to 10k.
