The Red Bull RB17 has been showcased at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. This is not its first rodeo, though, as it was presented in concept form during last year’s event. This time, Red Bull has brought a prototype complete with a Cosworth-sourced V10 engine.
Legendary F1 designer Adrian Newey was among the first to take the RB17 out on the hill climb course. The hypercar will also be piloted by Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 driver Isack Hadjar, Red Bull Test and Reserve driver Yuki Tsunoda and Red Bull Racing Academy Programme driver Alisha Palmowski.
The RB17 is one of the most extreme hypercars on the market. Its overall design looks starkly similar to another famous Newey project – the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro.
Powering the RB17 is a naturally aspirated V10 paired with a hybrid system. It is capable of putting down a combined 1,200 hp and a projected top speed of 220 mph.
