The jokes of the Red Bull men
“It’s nice to see three Red Bulls on the podium”declared Sergio Perez in the press conference at the end of the Bahrain Grand Prix which saw Max Verstappen precede the Mexican with Fernando Alonso on the third step of the podium following an amazing comeback in the last stint of the race where the two-time world champion with Renault he overtook the Mercedes of Lewis Hamilton and the Ferrari of Carlos Sainz on the track, managing to conquer third place also thanks to the knockout of Charles Leclerc stopped by an electrical problem that knocked out his power unit. “The Aston Martin looks familiar“added Red Bull team principal Christian Horner.
Alonso’s reply
“Both Red Bull and Mercedes say we copied them, it seems impossible to me”the defense of Fernando Alonso on the eve of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in which the team of patron Lawrence Stroll confirmed the good things already shown in Sakhir confirming itself as the second force behind Red Bull despite the fact that the characteristics of the Saudi track are completely different from those of the circuit of Bahrain.
Video analysis
In the following video uploaded to our channel Youtube we explain why it is wrong to trivialize Aston Martin’s leap in quality with a simplistic ‘copy’ by the emerald green engineers of Red Bull concepts. The high-downforce front wing used in Bahrain, for example, demonstrates how the aerodynamic concept on which the two single-seaters were based is completely different.
Conclusions
The differences between the Aston Martin AMR23 and the Red Bull RB19 are many starting even simply from the front suspension layout which is push-rod for the Aston Martin and pull-rod instead for the Red Bull. The air intakes of the sides are squared in the Red Bull, while they are more rounded on the Aston Martin. The floor of the fund of the RB19 is decidedly more elaborate in the outer part compared to that of the AMR23, the sides, moreover, although absolutely similar at first sight, highlight a difference in the integration of the radiators since those of the Aston Martin also have a internal excavation that is not found in the Red Bull ones.
