The Red Bulls had relatively much higher top speed in qualiy compared to FP1, 2 and 3...
Are they already running the DRD (the beam wing 'staller') ?
Their pace, coupled with that photo comparing the rear wings, means that the RB9 has to have a lot more rear-end DF than they know what to do with. How planted would they be if they had wings similar to the rest of the field, let alone at places like MonacoSevach wrote:They have an unique rear wing, longer chord than we are used to seeing since DRS but a smaller surface area.

I doubt it. They probably simply missed the sweet spot or they simply were over- agressive with setup in order to get the pole.Diesel wrote:Is this car a bit of a one hit wonder? Extremely fast over a single lap, but unable to look after tyres resulting in crippling race pace?
With the tires as they are this year, maybe Red Bull's aero over mechanical focus is no longer the best philosophy?

Yes, today in Melbourne. But that's not what you was writing before. I (and I think pretty much everyone else here in this forum) also disagree with you in terms of BRB beeing outdeveloped by Ferrari and Lotus.Nomore wrote:...agree or disagree are personal opinons.raymondu999 wrote:And I think we'll agree to disagree.Nomore wrote:I think it has nothing to do with Setup, tyres...etc.

The race Showed that ferrari and Lotus were faster than red bull
That's not how it works. If RB are faster in Malaysia then it doesn't mean they've out developed everyone else in the last week. They could bring zero updates and still be quicker - it's going to be more about the car suiting the track and conditions and them getting the setup right. If they bring a new component to the car and that is the sole reason they're quicker in a weeks time, which is highly unlikely, then you can say they're out developing the competition. But even then that part would have been in development for many weeks, maybe even months, so it's not a sudden thing where they're making a step forward due to work done in the next few days.Nomore wrote:Yes in Melburne, where else..?
what was i writing before ?...answer : They just got out-developed by Ferrari and Lotus during the winter session.
In the end of the last year RB was faster than Ferrari and Lotus, now in the first race they are slower--> i personally call this"outdeveloped"
If in malaysia they are faster in the race than congratulation to them... they have done a better job this week and out develop everyone.
Its all about a developing race and we have 19 races to see who wins. For now Ferrari and Lotus are the best.
