Technical debrief: Jerez testing
Formula 1 testing continued at Jerez last week as new cars from Force India, Virgin Racing and Red Bull hit the track for the first time. AUTOSPORT's technical editor Gary Anderson guides you through the latest developments and explains why Adrian Newey's designs have set the trend in F1 under the current regulations
Red Bull unveiled its new RB6 last week - the car it hopes will allow it to make the final step and claim a maiden world championship in 2010.
The team finished 2009 with the fastest car on the grid, so there's been no need to get so radical with this season's design. Essentially, the RB6 is an evolution of the RB5 and visually there is very little difference between the two cars.
