I'm just wondering if the tension struts(12) are connected to the front axle support(01) which is rigid already(and I'm sure strong enough not to flex),
Isn't the bar just a redundancy?

I need to look underneath to see the big picture. I mean no disrespect here, but inquiring mind needs to know.

You do actually feel the strenght of having the front bar, so maybe not redundancy of what you call, the bar gives extra strength to the (12) to reduce the movement when driving along or through the bends
