I have a mind set that always sucks up Hi-Tech racing and innovation, when the new F-1 cars are shown each year its a very full filling experience for me. This year when we see the cars with the "Thong" ( Halo device) I some how feel cheated. To me it would be like putting a Bra on the Statue of Liberty for the sake of P.C... I will look forward to each new car shown but I have my reservations this year...Some of the brightest minds in the world design these cars and I really feel there is a better alternative, similar to the Indy Car windshield or the Sauber Pop Up Deflector.. we have airbags on street car and that shows we could do something better than a Thong!!!

Unfortunately it's a testing only livery on the Red Bull. Aston Martin has had an "Innovation Partnership" with Red Bull for a few years and may possibly become an engine manufacturer in the future. More at the link below.
