How F1 porpoising lay foundations for Red Bull success
Adrian Newey explained that Red Bull was less affected by aerodynamic porpoising than Mercedes or Ferrari in the ground-effects era of Formula 1. While many teams struggled with bouncing due to the reintroduction of ground effects, Red Bull was able to find a solution quickly. Newey, who had previous experience with ground effects, made sure the RB18 was well-designed from the beginning. Compared to Ferrari and Mercedes, who stopped developing their cars early on, Red Bull continued to develop theirs longer, which theoretically put them at a disadvantage. However, they were able to address the bouncing issue early on and didn’t have to invest as much development energy into fixing it.
