"Sauber's 2024 F1 Car: Embracing a New Era with Green Livery and Red Bull Design Philosophy"

The new Kick Sauber C44 features a pull-rod front suspension and a Red Bull-inspired design philosophy, with heavily undercut sidepods and a RB19-like radiator inlet. The car, still Ferrari-powered, was initiated under the previous technical director Jan Monchaux and completed under James Key. The pull-rod front suspension allows for tighter aerodynamic control and reduced dive under braking, while the heavy downward ramp of the sidepod and radiator inlets aim to keep airflow consistent. Additionally, a regulation increase in the roll hoop load test has led to design changes, and the front wing and floor edges are carefully concealed.
