Red Bull’s decision to incorporate Mercedes ideas on its new RB20 Formula 1 car has added a touch of intrigue to the pre-season.
Indeed, it is a move that has been viewed by some as the ultimate way to wind up its rival - in showing that it believes it can make work designs that its competitor could not. And based on the form showed by the RB20 in last week’s test in Bahrain, all the indications are there that the world champion squad has already unleashed plenty of performance from it.
Well aware that rivals were closing in on it over the course of the 2023 season, Red Bull felt that the only way to make a big enough leap was to do something very different. Asked about what prompted the decision, he said: “It was based on the simulation and numbers. “You know you have to improve quite a lot because the others will come back, and you know that your concept is more or less at the plateau of what you can achieve with it.
