Listen to this article Those images only helped stoke the fire, as the mad scramble began to try and work out what the team was doing differently to its rivals. Well, we can wonder no more, as there’s no hiding in plain sight. But just what has the team attempted to hide? We investigate… Red Bull Racing RB18 front detail Photo by: Giorgio Piola The RB18 has a four-element front wing, with a dipped mainplane in the central section feeding the underside of the nose, which tapers outwards from a slightly narrower tip. There’s a driver cooling hole supplanted in the tip of the nose but it’s housed within its own panel which means it will be possible for the car to run without too. Two slot gap separators crowd the edge of the nose tip and connect it to the mainplane, both of which are inwardly angled to encourage the passage of the airflow. Elsewhere around the rest of the wing, the slot gap separators and the front wing adjusters provide a similar service, as you’d expect given the lack of flow conditioning devices that the teams now have at their disposal on the front of the wing. The wing’s connection between the mainplane endplate is relatively conventional at this stage, with just a simple downwardly arc-ed section before they meet. However, the elements are more aggressively angled outwards towards the rear of the assembly, to encourage as much outwash as possible. This is further supplemented by the diveplane, which has been mounted quite low on the endplate. Red Bull Racing RB18 front wing detail Photo by: Giorgi …
