Laurent Mekies has promised that Max Verstappen will be competitive at F1’s Singapore GP.
Red Bull boss Laurent Mekies is confident that Max Verstappen will be competitive at the Singapore Grand Prix, despite his previous winless record at the Marina Bay Circuit. Verstappen has recently won two consecutive races at Monza and Baku, putting him back in contention for the title against competitors like Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri from McLaren. The RB21 has shown improved performance after the summer break, giving Verstappen hope for a strong showing in Singapore. Although historically a challenging circuit for him, Mekies believes that the team has made progress in unlocking the car’s potential. Red Bull aims to provide a competitive car for both drivers at the upcoming race, but the hot and high-downforce track in Singapore poses a new test for the team to overcome.
