Yeah . The RB19 gearbox is very slim , the gearbox is actually part of the RB19 aero package .
The slim gearbox made room for the special A.Newey diffuser , that's why the other teams can't copy the RB19 diffuser .
Because their gearbox is too big . Mercedes and Aston run with the biggest gearbox.
On the other hand : In the beginning of the season , MAX got issues with the slim RB19 gearbox .
MAX got downshift lag , but that was fixed after a few races .
Of course , the slim gearbox will also be part of the 2024/RB20 again..
