It’s always a challenge to find solutions, which don’t compromise the aerodynamics of the car. Newey said at the launch: 'The big challenge for us this year was the reintroduction of the KERS system. Even though this adds some mass and volume, the car has been further slimmed down at the rear, with exhausts blowing over the diffuser. That comes together with the RS27 engine, a partnership that enters its 5th year. KERS also sees its return, with the the Red Bull being equipped with a system provided by Renault. The ban on double deck diffusers mandated a much simpler version, allowing the technical team to again exploit their pull rod rear suspension which they introduced in 2009, also with the idea of running a simple diffuser. The changes on the RB7 were again influenced by regulation changes.

Adrian Newey, the team's mastermind, is known for such a cycle, with impressive innovation at times, while carefully improving its cars when they are at their best. Red Bull's RB7 is a careful evolution of the Red Bull RB6, which on its own behalf was already an step up from the Red Bull RB5.

Contrary to its predecessors, it ran without problems during the first four days while also being among the fastest cars on track.
