Red Bull Racing has just released studio images of its 2014 F1 car, the RB10. Yes, it has an anteater nose, but thankfully, Adrian Newey has overseen a clever use of paint and carbon fibre to help hide the ugly snout.
Overall, we think this is the best looking car we’ve seen so far in 2014. Thanks only to the disguised nose.
Not only because it is the defending world champion, Red Bull will be the team to watch in 2014. The arrival of Daniel Ricciardo will, of course, keep Australian interest high in the Milton Keynes outfit. It will be fascinating to see how well Daniel manages the step into the team and the expectations that come with.
Red Bull’s approach to the release of info for the RB10 has been low key and after a small series of images there’s an even smaller press release complemented by a quartet of video interviews with Sebastian Vettel, Daniel Ricciardo, Adrian Newey and Christian Horner.
It’s also worth noting the press release states the car you’re looking at now is the “first interpretation of F1’s radical new technical regulations”.
Our tenth season starts here: The RB10 revealed
28 January 2014 – Infiniti Red Bull Racing today revealed the RB10, our challenger for the 2014 Formula One World Championship and our first interpretation of F1’s radical new technical regulations.
Unveiled in the pit lane this morning at the Jerez Circuit ahead of the first day of testing, the RB10 is powered by the Renault Energy F1-2014.
As a team we have enjoyed hard-fought success in recent years winning the last four Drivers’ and Constructors’ titles. Now the game changes and due to the new regulations, the RB10 has little in common with its predecessors.
We’ve loved the last nine seasons, our tenth starts here…

Definitely a “better” interpretation of the design language.
One of the Better looking cars released. The McLaren has the best looking body, and Mercedes/Red Bull the best looking Nose Cone, combine both and Voila!
Don’t all assume the actual race car will look like that. The first and second tests are all about the drivetrain, we probably won’t see many teams testing the bodywork before the third test or Melbourne free practice.
