Mercedes have taken a closer look at the Red Bull RB19 and think they can follow in the same direction... Mercedes RedBull F1 Formula1
Mercedes’ James Allison has weighed in on where he feels the Red Bull’s RB19 is superior to his, and other, team’s cars.
With Red Bull’s RB19 sweeping all before it this season as Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez hold the top two positions in the world championship, Mercedes’ newly-returned technical director James Allison has noted the strengths the car offers its drivers. Having begun the season as Mercedes’ chief technical officer, Allison swapped job positions with Mike Elliott following a review of their technical structure, bringing Allison back to the position he held up until early 2021.One of the theories about Red Bull’s speed is that the RB19 is able to run lower to the ground than others without encountering the bouncing issues that such a ride height can trigger.
“I don’t think Red Bull is going much lower than the rest of the field. I also don’t think they are less affected by bouncing than others. “They have a very efficient car that generates a lot of downforce with a low rear wing setting. And they have cornering behaviour that gives the drivers more confidence than we have. I see no reason why we shouldn’t move in that direction.
