OFFICIAL: Red Bull RB5 Launched early! First pictures!!

The Red Bull RB5 unveiled!
Animated clip previews Monday's official launch
07/02/09 13:34

Red Bull shows the KERS system in function
The Red Bull RB5 will officially be presented on Monday February 9th at the Jerez circuit in Spain, but we can already present the car to you thanks to a spectacular 3D animation video showcasing the differences between the RB4 and the new RB5.

The computer-animated clip features Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel racing on track, as they bring to life the biggest rule changes in the history of Formula One.

Last season's car morphs into the current Red Bull Racing car, showing all the bodywork changes from nose to rear wing. Then the bodywork is removed to expose the KERS system, engine and inner parts. Only through computer animation can a car switch from grooved tyres to slicks without even stopping...

Mark Webber recently said the RB5 was the best-looking car of 2009 – here's your chance to make your own opinion!

The clip is available in the F1-Live.com multimedia section. To see the video, please click here

How close to the ground do them rear wing end-plates look?!!

**ChyFDjfed** · 02-08-2009, 03:18 AM

Slim nose? At least someone is similar to Toyota.

Red Bull seems also among one of the few, who has included sidepod-winglets into their design. Won't tell much more than that at the moment. Good video though.

And nice spin by Seb.

In the video (around 00:58), it looks like they connect to the undertray behind the axel.

**Dabdklwu** · 02-08-2009, 04:15 AM

for once, a F1 car that doesn't look that bad, I like the Ferrari also, but thats about it, the cars are just horrible

**DexOnenlyCymn** · 02-08-2009, 04:26 AM

Fantastic video, I don't really think the new cars are as ugly as they could have been.

**EvonsRorgon** · 02-08-2009, 05:40 AM

THe RB5 looks great.

**ImmitsRom** · 02-08-2009, 08:00 AM

Christ they are low!

Absolutely great video.

**Qdkczrdi** · 02-08-2009, 04:16 PM

amazing video..... bring on the launch

**datingcrew** · 02-09-2009, 04:26 AM

Mark Webber had been saying in the press that he thought the new RB5 was a very beautiful car which "given the 2009 regs is no mean feat!"

based on this, i'd have to agree with him that it looks good, but i'll reserve final judgement till the real pics emerge

**7kitthuptarill** · 02-09-2009, 02:46 PM

Sweeeet !!!!!

**Rategbee** · 02-09-2009, 06:14 PM

Shame about those (supposedly banned) bargeboards

but other than that it looks pretty good for a 2009 car.

**SetSnonejog** · 02-09-2009, 06:44 PM

Looking good, let's see how fast it runs now.

**DuesTyr** · 02-09-2009, 07:57 PM

A few pics:

Rear suspension:

Very low rear:

Fused BMW horns:

Unless Ferrari make the rear 3rd of their car better looking, this one takes the cake for aesthetic value.

Hope it's fast.

**BariGrootrego** · 02-09-2009, 08:14 PM

By far the most interesting car released and not surprisingly a Newey inspired tight package.

The rear wing endplates form part of the diffuser - looks like an 80s Indycar. I'm surprised very few have done this to stretch the limits of the rules considering the diffuser regs.

Nose cone reminds me of Ferrari. Barge-board/deflecters area looks amalgamation of Ferrari and McLaren.

Interesting of all they're using pull rod and not push rod setup at the rears to lower the centre of gravity. What's the pros and cons of pull rod suspension?

**datingcrew** · 02-09-2009, 08:29 PM

Adrien Newey attacks the new regs more aggressively then anyone else...

... no surprises there!

**lasadeykar** · 02-09-2009, 09:21 PM

Definitely a nice clean tidy looking design, and the Red Bull colors certainly don't hurt mattes. Definitely the nicest looking of the 09 reg cars. The BMW is hideoous.
