Perez reveals engine issue blighted Singapore GP qualifying
Red Bull had a difficult weekend in Singapore, with their car performing worse than expected. Both Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez failed to make it into the pole position shootout, qualifying in 11th and 13th respectively. Perez expressed his disappointment and said that despite making changes to the car, they were unable to find a solution to their issues. Perez’s hopes of improving his position in the final lap were dashed by a spin caused by a misfiring engine. With both Red Bulls starting outside the top 10, their chances of a successful race are in jeopardy. Red Bull Team Principal Christian Horner emphasized the need to analyze and understand the reasons behind their drop in pace and performance. Although starting from a difficult position, the team remains determined and believes there is still plenty to play for in the race.
