Certainly the Red Bull it was the team that tried to hide the lines of their 2022 car as much as possible, first by organizing a presentation of the livery on a standard car and then taking to the track for a shakedown at Silverstone last Thursday of which no images were released, except those caught by some prying eye, however of low quality. And the wait was not betrayed this morning, when the real RB18 took to the track for the Barcelona tests, showing rather different technical solutions from the competition, with a decidedly innovative design.
World champion Max Verstappen was the first to step into the car’s cockpit, commenting on his contact with the latest addition to Red Bull: “AWe got initial impressions of the RB18 during our filming day last week and the car looked good. The rules are really different for this season so it was nice to complete a few laps and get a feel for how it works. I have no particular objectives for the championship, other than to go to the track and try to do the best you can, like I do every season. If the car is fast, I’m sure I can do a good job again ”. Words of esteem then for Sergio Perez, reconfirmed by his side: “I am looking forward to another fun year with the team and with Checo, who is a good guy and we push each other with, which is good for the whole team.“. And the Mexican is also curious to understand the values on the pitch: “Behind this car is a huge amount of work, of our people’s factory hours. I am confident and I really hope that the car can be fast. The key will be the development that can be done over the course of the season, which will have a big impact. We can already observe machines that are very different from each other in the interpretation of the rules. It will be interesting to get to the first race and find out which concept will be the best“Concluded Perez.
