Red Bull’s 2024 F1 car has been spotted in public for the first time during a shakedown at Silverstone.

Reigning world champion Max Verstappen completed the first miles in the RB20 on Tuesday morning at a wet Silverstone, with teammate Sergio Perez set to get a run in the afternoon.

The RB20 has already been pictured and filmed by onlookers at Silverstone, despite the public not being welcome to attend.

Crash.net has had it confirmed that it is the RB20 being run at the British Grand Prix venue.

Verstappen claimed the new RB20 will “look exactly the same as last year’s Red Bull”, but there was at least one noticeable difference from the footage captured at Silverstone.

Still images from the video footage appears to show the RB20 featuring a new design on the upper bodywork that resembles the bulbous engine cover adopted by Mercedes with last year’s W14.
