Red Bull RB11 Renault

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.

If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari.

Red Bull, like Mercedes, is testing a interconnected hydraulic suspension.

Silly question: where is the evidence on that pic for a interconnected hydraulic suspension?

You see those hoses, pressure and those 3 golden hydraulic devices that is the pressure system.

The cheapest sort of pride is national pride, every miserable fool who has nothing at all of which he can be proud adopts, as a last resource, pride in the nation to which he belongs; thus reimbursing himself for his own inferiority.

Some massive aero-racks there, two of them. A lot of testing going on before the winter..

I honestly believe the RB11 is a match for the W06 now, if not better. Shame it goes wasted, but such is the sport, it's all about complete package i guess :)

Maybe i am blind too then, the only difference from those pictures i can see is that in Crucial:s photo the hoses for refilling/changing and bleeding the brake system is attached and in lio007 pictures they are not. Thats the only difference i can see, internally on the car it doesnt seem to be any other routing of the hoses for the suspension system.

You're right that stuff and the hydraulic pressurising kit has been used all year.
