    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

    Shame about those (supposedly banned) bargeboards but other than that it looks pretty good for a 2009 car.

    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.

    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?

    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.
    HINCHTOWN!!
