Adrian Newey's RB17 Aero Design so Extreme it Generates Sinkhole
July 17, 2024

"...downforce generated by the RB17 is stronger than the gravitational pull of Jupiter."

LAS VEGAS—Adrian Newey's latest masterpiece, the RB17, has pushed the boundaries of aerodynamic engineering to unprecedented levels. The car's downforce is so immense that it poses a unique problem on public roads—within just 100 feet of driving, it has been reported to generate sinkholes due to the sheer force it exerts.


"This is what happens when you give Adrian Newey free reign," remarked F1 analyst Sarah Collins. "His designs have always been revolutionary, but the RB17 is on another level. It's like he's harnessed a tornado."


The RB17's aerodynamic capabilities have reached heights that challenge conventional understanding. "We're reaching levels that almost defy the laws of physics," stated engineering consultant David Nguyen. "The downforce generated by the RB17 is stronger than the gravitational pull of Jupiter. It doesn't make any sense."


The extreme nature of the RB17 has even caught the attention of commercial demolition teams. "We're exploring ways to utilize the RB17 for expedited demolition of low-income homes," revealed real estate developer Mark Thompson. "The idea is to clear space for commercial real estate that remains completely unoccupied. It's a novel application of F1 technology."


As the RB17 continues to dominate with its unmatched performance and innovative design, questions remain about its practicality outside controlled racing environments. Despite the challenges it poses on public infrastructure, admirers of Newey's engineering brilliance eagerly await the next evolution of the man himself.
