must agrea with you, very sexy, wuld be even better looking if it were in a certain shade of red
(as a note, i think all f1 cars should be that shade of red, not cuse i want every car to be a ferrari but i just find that color awsome)

has anyone else noticed that the 06 cars have substabtialy fewer winglets on the sidepods

sidepods are very narrow compared to the RB1, that's to be expected as the radiators will be smaller due to the V8 engines, hence the aero package will be alot tighter. Can't see much else different though. I like it.

Just wait - they've only started their wind tunnel work on the new cars. After a few months, I'm sure we'll see yet another batch of novel and esoteric winglets sprouting on all of the cars after the aerodynamicists get underway with them.........

Not bad looking, but I'd be suprised if that's the car that rolls out in Bahrain.

[ykickamoocow]

It looks better than the new Toyota.

[nojvnof1]

The Toyota is definitely not the final version, as this RBR2 isn't either I think.

[F1 FANatic]

the nose cone seems to me to be a bit more slender, more toward the renault end of the spectrum than the ferrari end
(maybe its me but i think ferrari always has very braud nosecones)

[AutoRacer5]

The sidepods make it look sexy I think.

It looks like someone sat on the sidepods when they were hot.

[AutoRacer5]

They're fronting a V-Keel.

Ah you go there too I see. Well, most of them are American, so I guess its all good.          

[F1 FANatic]

sad that speed is the only provider of f1 in america, they do good covarage but having been acustamed to german covarage everything pales in comparison

I think it looks a lot like last years saber. But I like it I think its cool.   

[Senna]

The RB2 is just as ugly as its predecessor.

[AutoRacer5]

look at the sidepods.

C'mon guys, you can see it in the pictures - you didn't notice it???

check out how deep (front to back) the leading arm of the front wishbone is.....

[ykickamoocow]

I just hope that the new RB2 will be fast and competitive. I imagine that when Adrian Newey joins Red Bull next week he'll beable to make it afew tenths faster before Bahrain.
