Red Bull boss Laurent Mekies dismissed Max Verstappen’s claim that the team won’t win in the 2025 Formula 1 season, citing Hungary as an outlier. Despite Verstappen’s concerns after finishing 9th in the Hungarian Grand Prix, Mekies believes the team’s performance will improve. He highlighted their strong showing at Spa and emphasized ongoing learning opportunities for car development. Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko also expressed confidence that Hungary was a one-off struggle. Mekies echoed this sentiment, attributing the issues to track-specific challenges and emphasizing the team’s strength on high-speed circuits. They both remain optimistic about Red Bull’s future performance.
