Red Bull Racing RB17[edit]
Hi 5225C. I'm wondering if Red Bull Racing RB16 is the best target for Red Bull Racing RB17. Isn't RB17 the name of Red Bull's upcoming hypercar?: https://www.motortrend.com/news/2025-2026-red-bull-rb17-f1-hypercar-future-cars/ DH85868993 (talk) 07:08, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not sure... Yes the RB17 name will be used for the hypercar, but we don't know what brand it'll be produced under – it could be the Red Bull RB17 or the Red Bull Advanced Technologies RB17, or some new outfit entirely. My take is that at the moment, someone searching for the Red Bull Racing RB17 is probably looking for the 2021 car, which of course was actually named the RB16B. But maybe they're looking for the hypercar? I'm not sure. For what it's worth, if I was to choose a redirect target for Red Bull RB17 I would certainly choose Red Bull Racing#Red Bull Advanced Technologies. Either way there'll need to be some hatnotes once the RB17 article is created. I'm not sure what the best arrangement is at the moment, but it's important that some sort of direction is given. 5225C (talk • contributions) 07:20, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Fair enough. As you suggest, it should become clearer once the hypercar actually appears. Cheers. DH85868993 (talk) 10:16, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
