Red Bull has been developing its own version of the ‘Macarena’ wing used by Ferrari during a Formula 1 test at Silverstone, featuring Max Verstappen behind the wheel.

Ferrari’s innovative ‘Macarena’ wing, tested and refined since pre-season, has influenced Red Bull to develop its own design, sparking curiosity about their performance in upcoming races.
