Red Bull RB10 Renault

[JesperA]

2011 car had a bunch of KERS issues, it's just that they were mainly on Webber's car

Just on webber's car? I don't think so:

He never said it was just on Webbers car, read again

A few guys noticed a small cut out on the rear sidepod or thought it was a burn hole, found an image from the other side of the car and there is another small hole under the 'platform computing logo' not sure it will help anyone.

Thanks for the clarification...I thought RBR had a serious problem on it's hands...

so nothing burned through the sidepod, yet it still looks at least a bit scorched to me, one hole looks 'clean' the other one has rough irregular edges - or maybe the RB mechanics aren't that good with drills/angle grinders

Hmm, maybe placing the MGUH between the banks wasn't such a wise idea...
Otherwise I don't see an issue with Renault engines themselves, it must be the packaging.
Up to now I have not seen a car with the sidepods off, so I guess I can't comment on it now.

KERS unsafe lights are on too.

FIA said it will investigate about RedBull and Mercedes noses because the tip is made of a flexible material. Can someone explain what is it

RB10 didn't have those holes on Day 1.

Probably quick ad-hoc solution, presumably in vicinitiy of hottest power unit parts.

And maybe the right hole is sprayed with fire extingusher.

I know what is the problem its the name...

Red Bull RB10 = Red Bull are beaten!

I'm sorry to break it to you, but this too has already been posted a million times. Read some threads maybe?

Shows RB are right on the limit. I don't think this is such a bad thing (would be nice if the other renault teams could put a bit of mileage on the engine though).

Better to start over the edge and adjust it back to the limit then to start too conservative imo.

Not in a formula where the engines must last for a distance father than they can really simulate in testing reliably.
