Red Bull has ‘clearer understanding’ of problems in Singapore
Red Bull’s winning streak of 15 races in a row was ended abruptly in Singapore, as both Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez struggled to perform well in qualifying. The team’s strategy to start on harder tires was not helped by two Safety Car periods, which worked against them. Red Bull’s team principal Christian Horner admitted that their setup was a major issue, causing their performance regression. He also noted that even dominant teams like Mercedes have had difficulties at the Singapore circuit in the past. Despite the setback, Horner ruled out the new Technical Directive as the cause of their poor performance.
