A similar story unfolded at Spa-Francorchamps, where Lewis Hamilton took the victory while Verstappen finished fourth. Although Verstappen's starting position of 11th, due to an engine penalty, partly explains his result, it is worth noting that in previous seasons, he has still managed to win races despite similar setbacks.
Red Bull's pace at the start of the season was outstanding, as Verstappen and Sergio Perez delivered 1-2 finishes in the first five Grands Prix of the season. Did a modification on the RB20 cause the pace to drop? After the Chinese Grand Prix, Perez's pace dropped to the point where he struggled to finish in the points, causing him to nearly lose his Red Bull seat.
