All the entries to the Venturi tunnel are different on the 2024 F1 cars. However, a group of three cars have the inner fence cut out (yellow). #RedBull has adopted this shape this season, taking inspiration from #Ferrari (which has had it since 2022) and #McLaren (since 2023).

The Red Bull #RB19 did not have a cut-out in the inner fence last year, contrary to the Ferrari SF-23 and the McLaren MCL60.
