Max Verstappen and Christian Horner explained how Red Bull’s risky set-up led to challenges at the British Grand Prix. Verstappen’s pole position start was due in part to a gamble on a skinny rear wing. Unfavorable weather and a spin impacted his performance but he managed to finish fifth with a solid recovery strategy. Verstappen struggled with car balance and tire degradation but felt the team made the right call by staying out on intermediates. Horner noted the weather forecast misled them, setting the car up for dry conditions, while McLaren excelled once the track dried out.
