Red Bull RB12 TAG-Heuer

I don't even care about the nose. That front wing is the most beautiful thing in Formula One right now, as is the entire car.

Not wrong, it's a six element work of art!

Is this the new nose? Is it really that similar to the old one?

Really is no question who consistently designs and fabricates the highest quality chassis. Fit/Finish are amazing! =D>

Adrians's designs are always clean to point of being deceptively simple. Look at that front wing! Just clean simple lines no hazardous looking shapes like Merc but you an bet you but that this wing is working in perfect harmony the everything else downstream.

Now that they have more engine power they instantly move forward with aero.

There is a slight bump in the nose which is the key feature of this new nose (unless you've got a rule handy of course). You can see the pattern of the carbon more clearly on that patch.

Oh well back to the bad old days when RedBull had tonnes of downforce, though efficient downforce! over the field. lol

That wing is anything but simple. There is some serious lofting to create that extreme 'wavy' shape through the wings various elements, and all of them have guide paths through three dimensions. Not to mention that the profile orientation relative to guide paths would need to be defined in some way, to draw that wing would be a real bastard of a job. To me that is a very intricate and detailed design, very impressive.

That is why i said it is "deceptively simple" in my post.

I was looking at their nose from pre-season testing last year. The amount of bodywork they were able to shave since then is quite impressive.
