Red Bull Racing renew Ansys partnership

Oracle Red Bull Racing have announced a partnership extension agreement with software company Ansys.

As per the new agreement, the Canonsburg, Pennsylvania-based multinational company will remain an official partner of the F1 team for a further three years.

The extension will see the Milton Keynes-based outfit continue using Ansys tech to improve aerodynamics, manage material data, and ensure structural safety of their cars. 

Craig Skinner, Chief Designer, Oracle Red Bull Racing, commented:

“Ansys simulation software helped Oracle Red Bull Racing quickly adapt to the new F1 design guidelines last year and positioned us to maintain our technical leadership in a dramatically altered engineering landscape. To stay ahead of the curve, we need tools that adapt to changing regulations. Ansys is flexible and keeps pace with industry needs, and we are looking forward to continuing our partnership and utilising enhanced offerings like Ansys Granta MI AI+, which will boost our material insights and help us develop the fastest and most reliable cars possible.“

Shane Emswiler, Senior Vice President — Products, Ansys, added:

“Ansys and Oracle Red Bull Racing demonstrate year after year that a combined commitment to engineering excellence translates to the racetrack. Developing the RB20 in such a short time frame is a testament to the high fidelity and speed of Ansys simulation solutions. We look forward to seeing the car in action for another fantastic season.“
