Drivers (notably Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas) and fans got first glimpses of Red Bull’s RB19 car at the pitlane ahead of pre-season testing in Bahrain

Red Bull’s RB19 has finally been unveiled and it has happened just a few hours before the team takes the track for their pre-season run. Fans and drivers alike got their first glimpses of the car at the pitlane in the Bahrain International Circuit during the traditional pre-testing photo shoot on the grid. F1 drivers Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas were spotted taking a very close look at the car and the picture has gone viral in no time.

The RB19 has slight modifications from its previous edition overall but the addition of the dramatic sidepods is a major change. One of the most interesting aspects of the RB19’s design is the floor edge, with the team having totally re-imagined it and the edge wing furniture. Two very different-looking winglets kick things off and are arched upwards and outwards to help with the new height restrictions placed on this region of the floor.
