Yeah , and that's pure advantage for the RB18's with the faster long corners .
At least ..Let us hope so .

And I'm already curious how they perform at Imola with that - 8KG ...
In other words : A. Newey didn't slept at work !

Let's face it my friend, Adrian Newey is a genius workaholic, it's in his blood and he deserves the best holiday when he has time off.

•The English translation for you guys ...

A.Newey stands for challenge :
"According Newey's calculations it costs about 250,000 Euro's per kilo lost"

The Red Bull planning for the RB18 is to lose 8 kilograms at Imola. 250,000 x 8 = 2 Million Euro's !?!?

Good Lord !

Horner has said Merc's slump may partly be attributed to RBR taking on key techs who worked for Merc and left because of too much stress and pressure at Backley.

…and what did all of that result into? 7 drivers championships and 8 constructors titles in as many years. Put in the work get the results. Simple as that.

Mercedes set the standard during the turbo-hybrid era and it paid off by winning both titles. Is Red Bull a better place to work at? Who knows? But start winning both titles and tell me the pressure and stress won't be up there like it would be for any other team competing at that level.
