Red Bull Unveils Surprising RB20 Design for F1 2024 Season

Red Bull has caused a stir in the Formula 1 world by revealing the unexpected design of their RB20 car for the upcoming 2024 season. The reigning double champions have taken a daring approach with their latest creation, which has drawn laughter and surprise from F1 fans and experts alike.

Daniel Ricciardo, the Australian driver for Red Bull’s second team now known as RB, expressed his amazement at the team’s decision to completely overhaul their design rather than simply refining their successful RB19 model. He emphasized that Red Bull’s goal is not just to beat the competition but to ‘completely crush’ them.

The RB20 design has raised eyebrows for its resemblance to the failed Mercedes ‘zeropod’ concept that was abandoned after the 2023 season-opener. Ricciardo’s reaction to the RB20 unveiling, captured during discussions with media including PlanetF1.com’s Thomas Maher, exemplified the surprise and intrigue surrounding Red Bull’s bold move.

Ricciardo’s insights shed light on Red Bull’s relentless drive for excellence. Following an incredibly dominant 2023 season with 21 out of 22 wins, the team has pushed boundaries with the RB20. Ricciardo noted that Red Bull operates at its best when in a position of strength, pushing for continuous improvement and innovation.

As Ricciardo prepares to tackle the 2024 season in the RB, his eyes are set on securing a spot in the main Red Bull team, possibly taking the place of Sergio Perez, whose contract is set to expire at the end of the year. The unveiling of the RB20 has set the stage for an exciting season ahead in Formula 1, with teams and fans eagerly anticipating the on-track battles and surprises that lie ahead.
