Considering the engine they're putting in the back of that thing, that rear bodywork of the RB15 is....ambitious.
Honda have been working with Red Bull on the cooling since mid-2018, the car and engine have been ran in the climate controlled chassis dyno.
Both Red Bull teams completed their shakedowns today with no issues
To be fair, looking at Maccas last season, the Honda engine was just part of a fucked up equation.They were working with McLaren on their integration for years...
And congrats, they ran the thing today at 50% throttle for about 10 mins without exploding 👍

Thank god it's a one off. It's awful.
Oeee, that's a pretty aggressive looking car.
Yeah, its got pink, it's still Force India to me.

The front swing on the Alfa looks like some rule bending loophole shit.
Bizzare implementation. Completely different from anything else so far. Looks like they left half of it on the factory floor!
The livery is a one off for Valentine' s Day.
God damn beautiful car ruined by ugly nose. Oh well, hope it works well for them.

McLaren's livery is weird. They used the black section for all the sponsor logos which are unrecognizable in standard shots, but the big middle part of the engine cover is empty.
That McLaren livery is gorgeous. Anything who doesn't think so needs their eyes testing :D
Completely agree!That McLaren livery is gorgeous. Anything who doesn't think so needs their eyes testing :D
It really isn't... front wing is radically different than any other team; yeah, they have a snorkel, but the Alfa Romeo has 2 side inlets; On top there is an indentation, compared to a protrusion on the RB15; The sidepods are massive comparatively; bi-mounted rear wing instead of single mounted; Alfa Romeo doesn't have the boomerang...That's actually a Red Bull Copy/Pasta. (not the livery, the car).
I've heard those rumours too. Supposedly a colour/finish similar to Ducati's MotoGP livery.Don't get me wrong, I quite like the livery. Just find it odd there is no sponsors on the main bodywork / sidepod area.
Talking of liveries... Anyone else been hearing that Ferrari will be running a matte finish this year? (Internet rumours / pinch of salt etc).
