Great start? by Fred saying the 30hp rumoured PU increase is a joke. No one is sure what exactly he means by that and I feel he's neither confirming or denying that that's the case confusingly saying that rectifying reliability issues may bring more hp.
Yeah right said Fred.

Ferrari is practicing in an operation room ,
The last 3 weeks they are practicing hundreds of pitstops !
Hope everything goes fast and smooth for the Italians ...

Hopefully we can see it during the races as well...
Ferrari under pressure means complete chaos , hope they can change that !

I'd like to see them improve and sorting their pit stops may stop some of the confusion and screaming (it don't come from Sainz) then they can concentrate on beating the s*it out of Merc

I'm guessing the livery will be similar to what has been.

I don't see them changing it much, the all white livery looked great and made an impact in the sixties when they entered the scene and lately on anniversary dates but there's no telling what the two main owners of Red Bull want.

I really like the dark blue matte glow . It makes the car look like a stealth jet fighter .

I like it and you don't want it in bright garish colours where those chasing can easily see where it is

We will know tomorrow if it is just a previous model in the new colours and one thing for sure is that Max will be there in the Big Apple for the unveiling.
I'm thinking it may be to do with what may happen in '26 and a possible tie up with another manufacturer seing the deal with Porsche,who wanted a too big portion of RB, fell through but nothing is certain yet.

Ford looks pretty nailed on for RB doesn't it now?

I think it could be a good move, presume they are just badging the new engine that RB Powertrain are producing in the new factory they have built. I wonder if they have bought any Honda tech or if Honda are taking that away from them??

Ford probably has an open cheque for RBR and with a probable 49 per cent stake in it will have special stickers made to be put on it and for sure Honda won't be too happy with that after supporting them for so long.
I'm waiting with interest how this will develop keeping in mind the TAG-Porsche engine that was used years ago.

Sad news in is that Paris born ex-Renault turbo F1 driver Jean Pierre Jabouille has passed at 80,a two time GP winner.

I would be disappointed if this Ford thing really happens. Red Bull pushed hard to do everything in house and preached the importance of being able to do both like Ferrari and Mercedes and even built RBPT.
