Red Bull presents its F1 for 2021: the RB16B!
Red Bull Racing has just presented its 2021 F1 car: the RB16B. In a very classic livery, the beauty was due to be unveiled at "date" 4pm, but in the end showed up earlier.
New season but same frame, and same colors.
By presenting its new single-seater, Red Bull asserts its choice of consistency by keeping an exterior appearance equivalent to its predecessor.
Only sponsor movements influence the 2021 livery with Aston Martin’s withdrawal, and the addition of Sergio Perez’s sponsors: Telcel and Claro.
If the decisions taken last year related to Covid-19 forced the teams to keep the same chassis, Red Bull also chose to keep the same name, simply adding the letter B to distinguish it. Thus, the RB16B 2021 succeeds the RB16 2020.
The minor differences are in the aerodynamics. Red Bull has indeed used its 2 development tokens allowed for slight adjustments to the airflow.
According to the FIA guidelines for this new season, the floor is now narrower at the rear and the side barge boards are streamlined.
The team completed its first run at Silverstone, providing Sergio Perez with his first test in his new car.
The goal for the season is clear: to get closer to the formidable Mercedes.
