Technical Features and Construction

The Red Bull Racing RB6 was equipped with a 2.4-liter V8 Renault engine that produced around 750 horsepower at 18,000 rpm. The engine and gearbox were housed in a compact and aerodynamically optimized chassis. One of the most remarkable aspects of the RB6 was its highly efficient aerodynamic package developed through the use of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and wind tunnel tests. Additionally, the RB6 utilized sophisticated exhaust-blown diffuser technology to optimize airflow and improve downforce. The suspension was conventionally designed but featured special dampers and shock absorbers tailored to the needs of the race track.
