Fallows and Marshall already left RB in the last years to AM/McLaren for exactly the same reason. You simply can‘t compete with other teams in terms of salary if these teams offer 1 of the top 3 highest paid job spots, which are excluded from the budget cap. RB‘s technical team is gonna get picked off one by one in the next years sadly. Hopefully the younger engineers can replace them for the future and luckily Newey just extended his contract.

[@dustinabigan2776]

I think there's just something more ominous about what they're up to this year. Imagine them switching up a car concept without a major regulation change, and yet this new concept still goes fast. If they can pull this off in less than a year, it's scary to wonder what they can do to make it even faster within the season. If they end up flying past everyone again, this is probably one of the biggest power moves any team could make against everyone else when they already won with a large margin last year. I've said it before with Max that he's the F1 driver mentality of not wanting to loose or give an inch dialed up to 11, and that's what gets him his high level of performance. Now, the team is also going down that path as well with them looking like they're about to wipe the floor with everyone again.

[@valkeitos]

The more ominous thing was not only about GP's smile but also the fact that Red Bull seem to have been running high fuel and a low engine mode the whole of testing. If that's the case then RB have a lot more pace in hand that we may not even consider.

[@danporti3942]

I think everyone is assuming their aero dept is what makes them better, while probably it's more like a suspension, chassis, etc. I think this change in whole concept is actually a good sign that while aero can be changed completely, the car is still dominating. In few years we may know the actual secret RB had these years and I bet it's not gonna be mainly aero.

[@atmoz_]

Love the way you described it. What I'm thinking seeing this is so bold. It even is daring all teams. Try to copy us now, you know Mercedes was unable to make this concept to work. Need to give props to Ferrari not trying to copy but just keep there own design what's seems to be the second team this year as well

[@shadowfox277]

[@wes1265]

the engine regulations limiting any changes is the only reason Red Bull has the advantage. They had the best engine when the regulations were implemented and that gives them 6 or 7 years of domination.

It’s not the testing which make me believe they are even more dominant than last year, it’s their comments and all the rumors around the last three days which scare me.

[@slevingaius]

In before someone goes what about James Allison... What I was impressed by was Chef Newey getting down and dirty at the garage during testing... Inspecting the floor, asking the drivers their input and impressions etc.

[@EntropicExergy]

Allison is the one who is responsible for the zeropod idea to begin with, he just jumped ship (literally, to play with sailing boats) on time to pin the blame on Elliott. For all those lulu/merc cultists who hyped up the guy, they sure seem hoping a lot that Newey goes to ferrari and not Allison. Luckily, RB is his baby as much as it is Horner's, he will only leave RB to retire, Newey will never go to ferrari (the only exception would be if Max were to go to ferrari and ask Newey to follow him there, Max is such a joy for him to work with). No, Allison doesn't even get to polish Newey's shoes, that is the gap between them in engineering prowess, a gap the size of the grand canyon. No shame in that though, considering Newey is the GOAT of F1 engineering and design.

[@slevingaius]

@@EntropicExergy well on that note... Allison did an interview in the paddock with a tongue and cheek response... "He would love an invite from Newey to the RB garage..." One would wonder if he's eyeing a position there.

[@EntropicExergy]

@@slevingaius To learn from the master of the trade, i can imagine that wish. Don't think RB will be all that happy to take on someone who has served directly under wolffieboy after what happened back in 21, so that's not going to happen. They only hired the merc engineers from the engine department because they are an actual addition to the team, being valuable for RBPT at the start. Allison has nothing to contribute, so RB aren't interested.

[@slevingaius]

@@EntropicExergy Dont mind for gaps in my knowledge about Allison but doesnt the lad also have an impressive resume throughtout his career? Like I do remember fans were heralding his return as the game changer that will put Merc on track. Him stepping away from F1 to yacht was because of a personal life event. His successor dropped the ball because of a mistake in the mock up scale design didnt help that the team doubled down on the flawed design.

[@EntropicExergy]

@@slevingaius Not really, he was trackside engineer at ferrari, not all that special. Then he went to merc in 2017 as chief aerodynamicist, when all the groundwork had already been finished for the car. He was the one responsible for the zeropod concept, so he isn't all that. Those merc/lulu fans have little clue of engineering in F1 so of course they would hail the father of the zeropod, despite him not being all that good. He went to sailing boats because he was bored, but not before coming up with the porpoising, draggy mess that was the zeropod concept. I personally don't think he was bored, it was his first time where he was responsible for the overal car concept. Elliott was the fall guy in case it went wrong, which it clearly did. His move from ferrari to merc was because of his wife dying, back in 2017. It's no Newey, that much is obvious and that is probably also the reason why lulu is jumping to ferrari next season. When driving in the sim it became pretty obvious that car wasn't going to be challenging Max/RB, hence the escape to ferrari. Horner already told about calls from Hamilton's father about joining RB, but RB wouldn't bite. After all, why get a driver that is over the hill when you have Max? Exactly, you don't.

Redbull had their dominance. from 2010-2013. And they were the last team dominate before Mercedes and they're dominating again before Mclaren and Ferrari won another a championship. RB fans love to play victim

[@into_the_void]

Apart from the sausage cannon design the concept is not very similar to mercs 0 pod... Redbull has basically taken the down washing sidepod concept to the extreme and added a vertical inlet below it to assist with boundary layer to maximize the down washing efficiency. The cooling system has evolved with the sidepod inlets , the 2 added inlets where the halo connects to the chassis and the regular inlet up with the roll hoop. There are 2 additional inlets midway up the nose for driver cooling ( some have the inlets in the tip of the nose , others such as merc and Redbull have it higher up )

[@chadestioco]

Oh boy thank you! I thought I'm the only one who doesn't see this the similarity to the zero-pod, not even to Merc's launch concept in general. I know it makes for a terrific narrative that RB beat Merc at their own game (oh the humiliation! the disrespect!) but it really isn't there, IMO. Maybe we can go for "inspired" but Newey didn't make the launch concept of W14 suddenly work with a clever hack.

[@Michallote]

I'm still convinced Checo is perfect for that second seat. Anyone else wont have the maturity to deal with Verstappen. And it leads to a never ending spiral of lack of confidence. Checo having already a seasoned and revered carrer has been able to deal with that better than any young driver. The thing with Checo is that he was crucial to develop this generation of cars as well, as Newey himself said he had a lot of insight into the Mercs PU response and has a very positive and useful feedback for the engineers to work with. After all he has 10+ years of F1 experience

Not to mention the fact that I guarantee if that happens, the FIA will intervene and make life harder for Red Bull, and someone else will probably win the championship in 2026.

Good God. Max just won 19/22 races last year and you don't mind if the same driver wins 24/24. Only people that have a Max alter at their home and don't care about anything else would wish for that to happen in 2024.

[@TheChazas]

8:10 Yes, but for more than 20 years of watching F1, we always had FIA stepping in and changing regulations in some big or small way to take advantage of the dominant team, and now we have none of that, even when the car is even more dominant than ever.

I blame FIA, they promised us more close and exciting races, but they didn't deliver. They also added a budget limit that stopped other teams from competing with the top teams in terms of engineering.

I think the real question is "why are people convinced 2026 will be a shake-up of the order?" 2026 is basically a B-spec of the current regs, one which RedBull show a unique understanding of. The biggest change will be them making their own engines, but rather fortuitously the engines are being de-emphasized compared to the hybrid components for '26, meaning they should be easier to develop while they rely on an automotive goliath in Ford to build the hybrid systems. 2026 should, if anything, be a repeat of 2022

[@Ryzard]

​@@WimvdBrink Oh for sure, when I said "max and red bull" I meant the whole team! They are happy to be at the top, and they stay hungry. Max is goofy, but he's ruthless and focused. It's really compelling to see others try to topple him, because any ground they gain means SO MUCH. I think a good part of it is that, when it comes down to it, I truly do not think Max will willingly throw a race or undersell his own capabilities, even when it's in his best interests. The same was hard to say for a lot of lewis' reign, as even when he was dominant, there were times it would randomly slip, or the car would seem meh, only to be back later. That plus mercades' constant undertuning of the engine and whatnot. When someone makes a pass on max (like Leclerc in 2022 or Norris in 2023) or actually pulls a race out of his grip (sainz being a good example) it means SO MUCH because you know max is PISSED about it, and he will not take it. So you can be that much happier for leclerc, norris, sainz, etc. because they are GENUINELY PULLING OFF GOOD THINGS! Progress is exciting. As for the horner allegations, I can't say I'm up to date as I don't follow red bull stuff that closely, but if they do turn out true, I absolutely agree. It'd be a complete shame, especially if it broke up the superteam. I want to see red bull fought fair and square, not crumble from within. That would be a battle for the ages like 2021. One can hope he didn't make such a dumb mistake...

[@WimvdBrink]

@@Ryzard agree, I am a Max fan and its fun to see he wins all races, but I like more drivers, I totally hope Ferrari and mcLaren will get closer this year, totally hope for a race win for Norris finally, I hope Max has to fight more, in his heart he likes a good fight and even would be satisfied to be second if the race was good (even while in his mind he gets crazy because he want's to win all the time) 2021 was too toxic at the end, MB used anything they could on and off the track to stop Max. It was much more fun to see the fights between max and Charles in 2022 and how they talked after the race. I liked Singapore because Sainz won, and he won because he was driving smart with the tow for Norris. I think Ferrari made a big mistake by giving Lewis a contract, he is a good driver but he is at the end of his career, he is no Alonzo. They are sending Sainz away.. totally crazy. Charles is good but when under pressure he starts making errors, his fight with Checo was the first time I saw him do everything right.

[@Ryzard]

@rink Man... I have to agree. Lewis is great, but Sainz is equal and often better lately when compared to leclerc in terms of consistency (those last two races being screwey being the only reason leclerc even beat him in the points in 2023), and he has many years ahead of him. It seems like a mistake to toss him like this, especially on bad terms after he was the one to bring the glory last year.

[@Milkydrummer]

People are STILL getting waaaaay too distracted by the bodywork of the cars. They see those tubes and think “oh it’s like the Merc” …it’s the underbody and the mechanical platform that differ. The over body could look identical, but the fact is, Red Bull have nailed the underfloor, suspension and balance. That’s the key.

[@valkeitos]

It's part of a puzzle. The underside could very well be the most advanced and best design in the sport but without the correct overbody aero, it's basically as useful as Haas. That's why you see a lot of development on the overbody as much if not more than the floor

Why are people saying it's copying a merc old design? It's literally nothing like the merc. The side pod argument literally boils down to a vertical air inlet rather than the horizontal usual ones. It still has a whole aero sidepod! The shoulders are similar to the old merc but that's not going to be bringing them there speed or downforce.

Imagine if red bull nail this concept and everyone is trying to catch up on their last ceoncept. Which route do you go? Follow their old design or try and repliacate their new? Even worse, if this is what mercedes were trying to acheive and fail,ed this one must hurt 😂

[@RossMKF1]

It’s not even that similar of a concept they have inlets and still maintain side pods. And then the hunches on top are way more extreme than Mercedes and look to be some how for cooling or aero related.

[@scsutton1]

Adrian Newey can't bi-generate like Doctor Who now can. That's the real issue here.

[@nullc0ntext]

Maz will win every race this year.

[@ArrowProds]

*Maz*epin comeback let’s go /s

[@nishyanthkumar]

​@@ArrowProdsLatifi will easily crush Mazepin.... he doesn't have 72 WDCs (and an assist) for no reason.

[@PyleHD]

Jesus fucking christ if I hear one more time that rb20 is a zeropod design i will uninstall my internet. Does anyone even know what a side pod is?

[@OverclockGamerzFX]

R they not using an engine from Honda? And if so are they the only one using Honda engines?

[@OnionChoppingNinja]

First they let all the other teams reveal their car's (all RB19 clones obviously) let them pound their chest exclaiming " we're gonna challenge Red Bull this year!" Then they reveal the RB20 deliberetly the last team to show their car, it being a bolt new design; all other teams became real quite all of s sudden Then during testing they showed a fair bit of potential but not all of it; case and point most top teams attempted a glory run on C4 or C5 softs; Red Bull despite having C4's available never even touched them. Only sowing more doubt in the minds of the competition. Can't deny that Red Bull are masters in psychological warfare; because everyone is seemingly scared sh**less about Max can do in the RB20 next Satuday. If Max wins with a 15+ second gap you can bet your a$$ the other teams will be morally completely decimated.

[@p0t4toePotato]

why do you call it a zero pod? the sidepods are nowhere near as flat and molten like the merc had, they bulge out as much as their big boy shoulders , the sidepods as extruded as they are allow for strongly guided airflow ontop and below of the pods, its just the intake slits that are narrow...

[@innoc3ntbystndr]

The RB20 looks fckin aggressive!

[@ehyehasherehyehiamthatiam3152]

😂😂😂a evil laughing session hahahahah 😂😂😂

[@stableianF1oracle]

Max is the genius ….. Lewis always wanted to be the pure racer Max is but Lewis failed. 😅

[@DampNoodles]

I legitimately wish he would talk faster. I always have to put his videos in 1.25 speed and then it actually sounds normal.

[@LouSassol69er]

Think that's just your poor attention span. Probably because of the brainrot shorts/reels/tiktoks you binge.

[@morbid1.]

people are panicking so much...

[@caskraker]

The end? No way. It is going to be a very exciting season. Who will win the point for fastest lap?

[@MinionInc]

Or maybe Red Bull's fastest lap on Day 1 of testing was their actual true pace whereas everyone else didnt show their true pace. Ever thought of that?

[@RexytheRexy]

When Adrian Newey cooks, he turns into Walter White.

[@danimalplanet18]

I don't get why there's a constant need to a response to a first impression; as if posting a couple of days later (or after first full race weekend) would make you feel like losing relevance..., but what if this complete domination doesn't work next week? That's when this video suddenly becomes bad comedy. The first impression is that Red Bull are ahead, but honestly I don't think there's much difference with last season when it comes to single lap pace. Especially Ferrari seems alright. The Mercedes drives easier than the last two seasons; that could indicate they're starting the season with less of a disadvantage. If McLaren makes a similar jump forward to last season, that would leap them ahead suddenly. And I think that's how we ought to enter the season. If the gap between Red Bull and the rest isn't as convincing as last season in Bahrain, I think Ferrari and Mercedes, or McLaren could play catch-up. But I don't need a video to state my case, just 10 months time.

[@franciscogomes9844]

And just like that all the DTS hype will vanish. The dominance will bore the DTS to death and they will leave. Some will say that's a good thing but I personally enjoyed all the hype and attention our sport got for the last few years. Also as a lifelong fan I knew this was going to happen. When the F1, FIA and Ross Brawn were screaming that these new regs would be the most competitive yet, I knew that was a lie. But I didn't expect all that talk just to end up with the most dominating performance by a team and driver ever. It did the complete opposite of what they promised us.

[@adriancojocaru5846]

but they were right - in these regs first and last are closer than ever, and before Mercedes started complaining in the summer of 2022, every race was a real banger - multiple lead changes, loads of overtakes, cars could follow the cars in front of them without ruining their tires etc. I blame Toto and Lewis for this, they were so mad because of their new position that they spoiled the greatest season ever (it had that potential until Ferrari were destroyed by that TD39 while RedBull were unaffected).

[@Daniboi971]

It is closer. The field is much closer. Ross was right

[@maylux9458]

Newey wasnt trying to build the fastest possible car he just wanted to dunk on Merc for the fun of it xd

[@anishs9699]

What is wrong with the people???From which angle it looks like zero pods????? Because it has vertical inlet?????

[@h4y13y6]

i know why it’s so fast - they put red bull instead of fuel in the car

[@andohish27]

I don't think RB is gonna lose a single race this year

[@metriczeppelin]

"Red Bull just ended Formula 1," really? What do we do now, watch Nascar? CLICKBAIT title.

[@ilnikogo7034]

Who wants to watch a dead spectale? If only one team dominates for years

[@mohammadsafwan6268]

Me a proud rb fan ❤❤

[@Adreno23421]

Not zero pod. There are huge pods right there. Vertical inlets, also like Ferrari had, besides Mercedes. The zero pods Mercedes brought simply don`t work, simple as that.

[@AtTheDriveBy]

F2 is much more enjoyable to watch anyways

[@avidmcplayer4942]

"Nah, I'd win." - Max Verstappen (probably)

[@SoloSailing77]

You can see a little bit of the RB 19 in every car on the grid. Except the RB 20. Wait, I think the mirrors are he same! I like almost all the drivers, and over half of the teams. I sure hope the field gives us many different drivers win. People who have hate in their life, will always find something or someone to hate. They are terrible winners, and even worse as a loser.

[@MeRacko]

Wtf were yo watching with that title

[@wongchinkong4505]

Hamilton is just ahead of Max. Crowd gets very excited. Oops, very wrong. Hamilton is one lap behind Max.

[@ranar1036]

I read that Red Bull will go to Ford for its engine next season. Why? The current formula is superb. Why change?

[@kieronmathews7422]

F1 would be better off without them, viewing figures will plummet if they dominate again.

[@EntropicExergy]

Bet you didn't say that when merc did it with lulu, when the sport did actually nearly die. RB is dominating in a way where they make it exciting, since Max ensures spectale in his winning. Merc does it in a boring way, because they are nothing but a bunch of boring accountants. F1 would be better off with those toxic losers at merc being gone (and that includes that woke loser lulu as well), RB is what makes F1 exciting and the sport would be worse off without them.

[@slapmynutz]

Congratulations 2024 drivers world champion, Max Verstappen

[@Yooenmi]

They were evil laughing because they took the fastest time with 90 kg of fuel in the tank.😂😂😂
