What’s changed with Red Bull’s new F1 sidepods

Red Bull’s upgrade package for Formula 1’s Hungarian Grand Prix appeared on Friday with the main focus being around changes to the sidepods.

As had been anticipated, the revisions incorporate all the main elements of the sidepods – including the inlet, the undercut and the contours of the bodywork.

The size and shape of the inlet has already been a focal point for its development this season, as the team introduced a shallower but wider variant at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix (below).

However, the Hungaroring upgrade takes the concept a step further, with the letterbox-style approach even shallower still, while being a little wider to maintain some of its volume.
