Red Bull RB10 Pre-launch Speculation

[Tim.Wright]

I've also heard the RB10 will have a different nose to my drawing and it is a solution thats been talked about on this forum.

Yes! I knew I was onto a winner here:

I think its pretty clear which direction Red Bull will go:

[Juzh]

hahahaha

Is that modeled after Newey's finger? Clearly he is the most aerodynamic on the design team...

[PlatinumZealot]

Now, that's really funny right there! The sad part is they could actually get away with it and still be two seconds faster than the rest of the field.

I did hear that RBR have done something slightly different to the new nose regs. The guy isn't huge on F1Tech but he said it did look different from Scarb's drawing. We've seen lots of teams run basic launch cars at the first test and I expect this to be even more common while they sort out the engines before homologation which is after the first or second test I believe.

which one exactly?

[Gridlock]

I'm sure Scarbs knows and just forgot to say

Yeah, very likely. Newey likes to keep designs simple and predictable.

Is that the middle finger?

Is that the middle finger?

Has to be Vettel's.

After Jordan shark nose, we can have a elephant snout or a anteater nose!

Likes to keep designs simple and predictable? Seriously does that even make sense. The design is dictated purely by aero. It just so happens that many times the simple designs are the best ones.

[the EDGE]

Is that legal?

I thought there could not be a hole in the nose except for driver cooling

[Thunder]

I don't see a Hole there.

[beelsebob]

I don't see a Hole there.

It's above the "nose" and below the nose. Though if you replaced the two front wing supports with a single central one (which would likely be better for air flow, that would get rid of the hole.
