RB’s technical director Jody Egginton stated that the team will introduce minor updates for the Dutch Grand Prix to build on their recent points streak post-summer break. Despite a challenging start to the season, RB has been consistently scoring points, except for two races, with four consecutive top-ten finishes leading into August. Egginton emphasized the need for upgrades due to the competitiveness of the field, as other teams have outperformed RB in previous races. The unique challenges of the Zandvoort circuit require a solid baseline setup and minor updates to compete at the front, with qualifying being crucial for a good race outcome. Driver Daniel Ricciardo, who is optimistic about returning to Zandvoort after last year’s crash, is aiming to maintain the team’s momentum and fight for valuable points in the intense second half of the season. Ricciardo, who has scored points in three of his last six races, faces an uncertain future with Red Bull considering Liam Lawson as a potential full-time driver alongside Yuki Tsunoda in 2025, following Sergio Perez’s retention.
