It is reported that Red Bull Racing will introduce a major upgrade to the RB19, including the shape of the sidepod, at the 12th Hungarian Grand Prix in 2023. Red Bull Racing, which has won 11 consecutive wins since last year and is leading the race, may be able to gain a further advantage over its rivals with the upgrades introduced at the Hungarian GP.
According to Auto Motor und Sport, Red Bull Racing has made “visible” changes to the design of the sidepods and bodywork, and the new parts are expected to improve lap times by around 0.2 seconds. The underfloor is considered to be the biggest factor in the performance of ground effect cars, but if you look at the performance of Red Bull Racing and the competitive power of rival teams that follow the concept, bodywork including side pods effects cannot be ignored. With two races to go before the summer break, F1 teams will want to introduce one last upgrade during the European season before switching their development focus to their 2024 F1 cars. Speaking following winning at Silverstone last weekend, Verstappen sent an ominous warning to his rivals regarding the potential benefits for Red Bull Racing from future upgrades. “The thing that has kept us stable so far is that every weekend we seem to be at the top, which of course is the most important thing from our side,” said Verstappen. “Hungary is a completely different track, but we’ve made some upgrades to the car there and hope it works well.”Drag, low speed, medium speed, high speed, DRS effects, tire wear…all these areas. So.” “That’s what I’m working on right now. I’m not kidding.”
