It was no secret that the "out of the box" RB2 had some serious cooling issues. The car struggled to complete more than a few laps at a time without overheating even in near freezing winter test conditions. Here are pictures of revised RB2-02 which also seems about 2 seconds a lap quicker!

New winglets on the front wing endplates, a new barge-board design, and a "mini-wing" over the gearbox are apparent.

A closer look at the new bargeboard with added protrusion at the side-pod end. 

The hastily hacked holes have been replaced by elegant gills.
