"Max will be way ahead of the others again if what I hear is true" the Limburger thinks. "Every now and then I fish for some information from Sébastien Buemi who is regularly in the simulator for Red Bull. It seems they found some things here and there" Bleekemolen: "It can hardly go wrong."

Interesting.

I want it noted for the record that if RB have a difficult test, it’s not entirely unpredicted

Based on reports, their rumoured zeropod would appear in Suzuka. That means, the car would still be what was run on shakedown (with some more bits) for test.

It's pretty much exactly what Jake Dennis said when asked about the rb20 in simulator. Max unchallenged etc

If the car is as good as they think, the poker face is world class. Dare I say a bit macabre...

[AR3-GP]

I may be clutching at straws but I want it noted for the record that if RB have a difficult test, it’s not entirely unpredicted

Considering that there would only be two outcomes, (a good test, a bad test), this is not such a risky prediction and there are no consequences for being wrong.

He thinks Sergio Pérez is waiting another difficult year. “I don’t expect Pérez to survive until the end of this year,” Frijns adds.

lol

Edit: To add my opinion, I think Checo will complete this year. I don't see any other better alternative for them if they decide to switch mid season. Are they really going to go for RIC or TSU? I don't think so. Nor do I think they will get ALB mid season.

Do you really believe the story about zeropods in Suzuka? RBR announced before the reveal that they wouldn't change anything mayor, no budget for new directions, RB20 would be just a development of RB19....
And now they want us to believe the complete opposite.
Both not true, I think.

Nothing new here, we've all been expecting it. Next two seasons are completely theirs to lose. Ferrari and Mercedes made crucial errors with initial design last year and will remain behind overall as RB kept developing and finding new ways to improve performance. AMR and McLaren made up some ground in the process, so these 4 teams will have some great battles again.

Zeropods, but not as we know them, Jim.

I'm in the believer camp now. The RB20 we've seen thus far is accurate, I'll hold to the claims I've made about it thus far, and an RB20B may be in the works. Suzuka reveal would tie a lot of threads together.

-new early season date
-high DF track
-Honda's homeland
-get to run a radical new design covered in heavy white paint, for fun

2023 gave RB all the records they need for a while. No other team can touch those for now. That frees them up to have more experimental seasons that have more losses, fewer poles, and fewer records, while still vying for P1.

Anyone have any RBR contacts by chance? If so feel free to DM me and thank you in advance.

I see what you are doing here. Piling the expectation and pressure on to RB

I expect nothing from them. 2023 won't be topped. '24 will be a year where they fiddle with exotic ideas and it could be amazing or it could be a catastrophe.

Also, the Perez sponsor situation is non-trivial. He's not getting dropped mid-season.

Poker face? I don't see it, I've read plenty of hints already going months back.

Newey, Horner, Verstappen have not suggested anything. It has only been 2nd and third hand snippets.

Those are the three people I would least expect hype leaks from, at least speaking in their own capacity. As for Newey we had Eddie Jordan basically relaying his thoughts on his podcast towards the end of last year, being very positive. Then we've had positive comments from the sim drivers. Also, at the launch, the drivers were unusually talkative about how aggressive and different this new car was, which I find unusual.
