With the exception of the Aston Martin sponsor, which has become a separate team by taking a stake in Racing Point, there is not much different at first glance between the two cars.<\/p>\n<h2>Comparison of the quarter before the RB16B (2021) vs RB16 (2020)<\/h2>\n<p>If we push a little and give a little more brightness to the image, and less contrast, we can nevertheless notice that the engine hood has been reworked as well as several changes all located at the rear of the single-seater.<\/p>\n<p>This is not a coincidence. The 2021 regulations have been modified to significantly reduce the supports and prevent disruption of the airflow behind the single-seaters in order to gain an aerodynamic advantage. As a result, the floor has been shortened on the sides as required by the regulations. It can also be noticed that the rear wing is different. From two supporting arms in the center of the single-seater, there is now only one support that surrounds the exhaust outlet of the Honda engine. The sides of the wing have also been reworked.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"rounded-sm shadow-3d\" src=\"\/images\/photo\/article\/f12021\/motorsinside-rb16b-vs-rb16-quart-avant-bulles.jpg\" alt=\"RB16B vs RB16 front 3\/4 comparison\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Comparison of the front face of the RB16B (2021) vs RB16 (2020)<\/h2>\n<p>The photos not being identical in perspective, do not consider the height difference.<\/p>\n<p>Concretely, we don&#8217;t have much to see before. Apart from the brake ducts that comply with the new 202 regulation and a shift in the small winglet placed on the nose, nothing visually differentiates the two cars.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, why change a winning team? Indeed, the Red Bull is the last car to win a Grand Prix in 2020.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"rounded-sm shadow-3d\" src=\"\/images\/photo\/article\/f12021\/motorsinside-rb16b-vs-rb16-face-bulles.jpg\" alt=\"RB16B vs RB16 front panel comparison\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Do you have any other information?
