The RB7, Red Bull Racing’s iconic car, is considered one of the greatest cars in racing history with its impressive track record of 18 poles, 12 victories, and multiple titles. However, it is often remembered for its thrilling stunts, such as donuts on top of the Burj Al Arab and bombing down a ski slope. Since 2012, the RB7 has been part of Oracle Red Bull Racing’s “Showrun” program, showcasing its unique promotional approach to Formula 1 to a global audience. The RB7 has undergone modifications to make it more reliable and easier to maintain for these events, with some parts removed to decrease downforce. The RB8, on the other hand, is used for track running and closely resembles a race car. The car’s famous blown diffuser, which contributed to its dominance in the early 2010s, is technically still present but without the engine maps needed to enable it.
