Of course....once they finish copying the Brawn design.

From what I've read, it will be hard for the Red Bull team to copy the Brawn design because of their rear suspension layout. Something along the lines of the space taken up by a "pullrod" system to actuate the dampers as opposed to the more traditional pushrod setup.
