@urveen Exactly. What Red Bull have done is to actually remove the side springs altogether, so that the coil heave spring in the middle deals fully with vertical compression, and the anti-roll bar fully controls roll. That way, they can set up the car to have super-stiff heave, and very soft roll (something that is impossible to do with a conventional set up). I think it's part of the reason why they can run such incredible rake.

@heelandtoe33 Doesn't that make it an Anti-Roll Bar (ARB) albeit one that is fundamentally a torsion bar?

@heelandtoe33 okay, but not nascar. euro racing rules all XD.

@AnonymoussourceL0L Le Mans has the same type of suspension. It's quite common. Torsion bars aren't anything new.
Felipe Massa saw this in even more detail, but he probably wouldn't remember.

Omfg, I jizzed my pants. Check out that rear anti-roll...
The smaller black rods near the bottom are for telemetry probably...
Those bellcranks are sweet.
