Page 1 of 1 Red Bull Racing did the best job following extensive regulations changes ahead of the 2022 season. With defending World Champion Max Verstappen at the helm, the RB18 absolutely dominated and the driver and team secured the World Championship early. For 2023, the design was further refined to form the RB19.
While the regulations remained mostly the same compared to 2022, there were detail changes setting a minimum ride height and mirror size. These modifications were carried through as part of the upgrade to the RB19. Further work concentrated on the side-pod design, which proved crucial to make the RB18 work so well in 2022. The ground-effect floor and its edges were also refined.
The RB19 was again powered by the Honda-inspired Red Bull Powertrains built power unit. The Japanese manufacturer upped their involvement and the hybrid V6 engine is now referred to as a RBPT Honda. The RB19 livery was revealed in New York and at the same event, a new partnership was announced with Ford, so from 2026 onwards the cars will be powered by RBPT Ford power units.
The world got a first glimpse of the RB19 during the single, three-day pre-season test at Bahrain. Max Verstappen racked up a startling 157 laps on the opening day and also set the fastest time. Page 1 of 1
