Helmut Marko reveals significant concerns for Red Bull Racing following Max Verstappen's defeat at the Dutch Grand Prix.
Red Bull Racing's Max Verstappen finished a staggering 20 seconds behind winner McLaren's Lando Norris in the Dutch Grand Prix. This marked a noticeable shift in the Formula 1 performance dynamics, igniting concerns within the Red Bull camp about their competitiveness in the championship race.
The race kicked off with Verstappen overtaking Norris, despite the latter starting from pole position. Initially, Verstappen managed to build a lead outside the DRS range, but this advantage was short-lived. Early in the race, Verstappen began experiencing issues with tire grip and handling. These issues were crucial as they allowed Norris to overtake on Lap 18, after which he continued to widen the gap, eventually sealing a commanding win.
"You always hope to do better. We had a good start and tried everything we could but it was clear we were not quick enough.Red Bull team chief Christian Horner also commented during the Sky Sports F1 broadcast after the race: "We have plenty of work to do but we have learned some valuable lessons this weekend. Time to digest and bounce back in Monza.
