no but drawings can be diverted to faenza. It happened in 2008nevill3 wrote: ↑26 Dec 2018, 15:50All this talk of the whole rear end being supplied by RedBull to Toro Rosso forgets to menbtion that many other parts will come too. The drive train, gearbox and front suspension could be the same too. Only the chassis has to be designed by themselves and not another current racing team or a previously raced chassis ( of another team) either.

Toro Rosso will utilise 2018 parts because Red Bull is famous for pushing its contemporary design as close to the start of the season as possible.
Marko said it was not logistically possible for Red Bull to produce enough parts for four cars without compromising pre-season preparations, but said Toro Rosso, which finished ninth of the 10 teams in 2018, must still target "fifth or sixth place".
"The concept is no longer a secret: Toro Rosso has received three trucks full of parts and will take over many parts of the 2018 car from Red Bull Racing, as far as the regulations allow," said Marko.
"The whole thing was made easier by the whole engine question.
"The complete rear end is from us, everything that is permitted according to the regulations.
"This gives us a small advantage on the cost side."
Reading this article and looking back at the end of last year when Honda introduced the Spec-3 but encountered some vibration issues on the STR13. I can now understand that nobody was really panicking about this issue because the test rig was probably already more engineered towards a RBR integration.Wouter wrote: ↑03 Jan 2019, 21:01From Autosport today.

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/red-bull ... ccounter=1Speaking to Autosport, he said: "It was stupid, why should we make our own gearbox when we can get it from Red Bull?
"We have a synergy project, we have the rear end, we have parts from the front suspension, that's it.
"It's just totally simple, we have the Honda engine, we put on the Red Bull Technology gearbox, nothing more to say."
Committing to the same suspension will also mean that the two teams are likely to converge on an aerodynamic approach.
"We will have a very close cooperation with Red Bull Technology next year," said Tost.
"Because we will have the same rear part, which means the power unit, gearbox and the suspension - everything within the regulations - because we want to use this much.
"The front suspension as well, the inner parts, not the outer parts, that's all.
"But that's a lot, because you know the complete rear part means also the hydraulics, the electronics, all this kind of stuff."

This year however, both will run the same rear end including suspension, a move which Honda believes will greatly aid the Japanese manufacturer.
