While we're all watching the "preview video" they will present the car to the folks assembled at MK, and then feed us bits and pieces (pics, interviews, prob other vids) via their website and social media. That's standard RB style.

Edit: Removed picture of old RB car (which was pretending to be the new one)

Bit odd. Its not like it'll even be the actual working car as that'll be over in Jerez right now.

My face was somewhere on that car. So glad Webber won that race XD

Cool video, seems more purple than the launch pictures though...

Oh for goodness sake. Same livery but with purple haze added. So now we have red, white, silver, yellow, blue and purple. Pick 2 or 3 ffs.

So no "Red Bull" on the sidepods anymore.

Is it just me or is the video a re-painted RB8 and different from the launch car in the picture ^^^^^

I think that that picture up there is not from the launch, the photo I posted is from the video on their youtube channel

Why is the car in that video completely different to the one pictured earlier in the thread?

Yeah you posted whilst I was posting. I meant the one above yours with the modesty panel. Or is it the 7?

Where did the non-stepped nose photo posted above come from?

There is no possible WORSE way to add purple to that car. Jeezus. Seb's going to have to give his some ugly name like Hester. No offense to anyone's mom.

Not the RB9 then. Just realised that's an RB7.

Twitter, it's got the FIA action on road safety logo on the front wing as well so must be a 2013 car...

Edit: Or maybe not.

_________________

Yup no way its the RB9 as the photos from inside the launch show the car the other way around. Plus it says redbull on the side instead of infinity.

_________________

Please let it not be purple..

Slightly surprised they stuck with pushrod front suspension.

Its purple. Look at the pictures ffs.

Hoping after the launch is pointless. Not entirely, but it does have a purple haze.

Those pictures are the best they can do? This is boring.

Apologies for the picture confusion, I grabbed it off Twitter and these things spread quickly! Was sure the FIA label on the front wing meant it was a 2013 car, but I may have just been blind and not noticed that sticker in previous years.

Well this has been a pretty shit launch. No worse than the Merc one tho, but pretty piss poor considering they are a top team. Macca and Ferrari, and even Force India managed to do a live stream (which were very popular), there's no reason why RB couldn't do it as well.

Mercedes don't launch until tomorrow. I believe it's at 12:30.

Love the wobbling rear wing in the video too. I bet Ferrari are watching that and already lodging a protest to the FIA over flexi-wings.

Also 318 views, probably mostly linked from here as almost 200 people are viewing this topic.

"Red Bull launch starting. From what can see under sheet, car doesn't have a full vanity panel - raised sides to nose top but dip between"

purple is an infinity colour, just go to their website.. its full of it.

Yep as good as the 'rhythmn' video is, it should have been a pre-cursor to a live stream of the launch. Very poor by RBR.

An overly optimistic fan would like to believe that the use of Mark's car points to big things this year.
