Red Bull RB20

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

in-depth study conducted by engineers Emanuele Litrico and Luca Giotti on the hydraulic system for reducing aerodynamic drag, inspired by the architectural brilliance of Red Bull RB19.

I dont think their DRS actuation system has anything to do with their top speed advantage - I think this is a red herring.

I think the high downforce tracks proved they just ran a very efficient aero platform at most tracks - when they put on extra downforce for those High DF tracks, their top speed advantage was minimal.

Looking at the opposite sidepod there is a crease on top. Either waterslide or the indent shown at the release. No sign of a top inlet with this perspective.

Is it a type of a side wing running from the lower end of vertical inlet to the end of the sidepod?!
