Adrian Newey’s latest creation is capable of beating the formula one lap record at Suzuka by a staggering margin of 20 seconds.<\/p>\n
Red Bull Technology’s top-secret X1 Prototype, tested around the Japanese circuit in virtual reality by Sebastian Vettel, was created for the new PlayStation game Gran Turismo 5.<\/p>\n
Newey’s challenge was to create a virtual car for the game’s November release not bound by any set of regulations.<\/p>\n
“We all have a dream about pushing the boundaries, where the performance of the car and the experience of the driver take precedence over the rules,” said Newey.<\/p>\n
The Briton’s next creation will be the RB7, the successor of this year’s impressive 2010 F1 challenger.<\/p>\n
“We have a few improvements in the pipeline (for the RB6) but I am personally focused about 70 per cent on the new car for 2011,” he is quoted by Auto Bild.<\/p>\n
“There are some very innovative ideas,” announced Newey.<\/p>\n
With the exception of his PlayStation creation, he insists his ideas are rule-confirmative, but some of his F1 rivals will suggest he flies too close into the grey areas.<\/p>\n
“It’s part of the game,” said Newey, “and it’s been like that for the whole of my career.<\/p>\n
“I see it as a compliment, because it is the best proof that my car is fast.”<\/p>\n
