Lots of aero concepts carry on, however without an engine that lasts the race and powers the car, the extra 0.5 sec from best aero concepts will just be a work of art
That's the whole idea, the power units will cause changes across the grid and therefore if there was gonna be a 'reset' this is when it would happen. Aero doesn't bring more speed than an extra 100 bhp. And the incremental advantages produced by Neweys cleverness will be pretty irrelevant with the new regs
Everyone now knows how to shape a car for downforce, the clever stuff like blown diffusers that many were slow to exploit has been abolished.
This is a forced return to power and mechanical grip. The only 2 sec advantage will be there
Ross Brawn is being provocative, IMHO , there is no way aero and design within the regs can bring the time a good engine and car bring. Let's remember that engines have been frozen for years allowing gains to come from aero
So unless he means Renault are carrying over some tricks Merc haven't thought of RBRs 2 sec advantage won't be carried over by the same aero tricks

No one is saying RBR will have a two second advantage next year. In fact, Nico was the one making an absolute claim by saying everyone starts from zero next year. We can argue all day about how important aero learned in the last few years will be in 2014, but I think we all can agree that it isn't ZERO. Of course there are a ton of factors involved in predicting 2014, but the point is given the info we have now, I think it's pretty safe to say Red Bull will still have the upper hand to some degree.

only if Renault build a power unit on par with Merc
The best RC engineon the grid? After the last 4 years have been won by a Renault engine with Ferrari second most of those years?

As it's been mentioned, engine development has been frozen for quite some time so I doubt there was no reason to even have a debate about the best engine. That's no longer the case.

I'm hopeful Merc make a good engine but no where as near as optimistic as you lot.
What are RC engines?

Not very complicated, and only work well for Lewis.
