🗣️ 'They don't have the DRS advantage all of a sudden that they used to have – where did that go?' 🤔 Lewis Hamilton asked the question about Red Bull's F1 DRS in Hungary, and here's an answer ⬇️
"I mean, they've still got the DRS, but they don't have the DRS advantage all of a sudden that they used to have," Hamilton told Sky Sports F1. "Where did that go?
Verstappen's 260.9km/h across the start finish line increased to 304.9km/h by the time he hit the speed trap further down towards Turn 1. This was not much different to Hamilton himself who was 260.3 km/h across the start-finish line and also hit 304.9km/h at the speed trap. Verstappen was 311.2km/h across the start-finish line in Melbourne and 328.8km/h at the Turn 1 speed trap. Hamilton was 307.8km/h across the start-finish line there and 324.3km/h at the speed trap.
Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes-AMG, inspects the car of Max Verstappen, Red Bull Racing RB19, in Parc FermeDigging into where Red Bull has got its DRS advantage, the theory is that the speed boost it gets from DRS comes mainly from the fact that the RB19 has a bigger percentage of drag coming from its rear wing than others – so when the wing is open the benefit is greater as it loses more air resistance.
Red Bull, however, has such confidence in the performance from its underfloor and diffuser - which probably produce more downforce than others - that it can often get away with running just a single beam wing. The reality for Red Bull's rivals is that if they want to match it in the DRS stakes then they too need to shift the drag ratio at the rear between the main wing and the beam wing. But to do so will require faith that they can trim back the beam wing without losing too much downforce.While Red Bull did not have a clear DRS advantage in Hungary, it did introduce a quite significant update that mainly revolved around its sidepods.
The inlet and the bodywork around it retains the same DNA of its forebears but the underbite panel mounted ahead of the inlet has be extended further forward.
