Marko makes ‘trust’ call as two factors identified to turn Verstappen into a winner again
Helmut Marko has expressed confidence in Red Bull’s technicians and believes the team will improve its performance at the next race in the United States. Max Verstappen’s recent form sees him without a win in the last eight races, a sharp contrast to his dominant start in the previous seasons. Red Bull has been overtaken by McLaren in the constructors’ championship, and Lando Norris is closing in on Verstappen in the drivers’ standings. Verstappen and Perez have struggled with balance issues in the RB20, but signs of improvement were seen in Singapore. Marko is hopeful for a strong showing in Austin with a new floor being introduced. The team aims for a wider working window for the car and improved speed to turn the situation around. Trust is placed in the technicians to bridge the gap between simulation and reality for better on-track performance.
