Whatever the reason, and despite Max Verstappen winning two of the last three GPs, the field is oh-so close now.
Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff has raised doubts about whether Red Bull has regressed, despite Max Verstappen winning two of the last three races. The season started strongly for Red Bull, but they have faced increasing competition, notably from Ferrari, McLaren, and Mercedes. Verstappen has voiced concerns about the RB20’s performance issues, particularly struggling with kerbs and bumps. The competition is fierce in the current aerodynamic era, with teams making significant progress. Wolff believes the upcoming races could favor Red Bull, especially with their strong performance expected at the Red Bull Ring. However, the competition remains intense, with McLaren and Ferrari also emerging as strong contenders. Mercedes’ recent podium finish in Canada signifies their progress this season, with Wolff hoping for continued improvement in all races ahead.
