In Barcelona, Max Verstappen fell further behind Oscar Piastri, with additional penalty points putting a race ban at risk. The clash with George Russell and Red Bull’s errors exacerbated the situation. Verstappen aimed for a predictable third in the Spanish GP, but McLaren’s superiority necessitated a different strategy from Red Bull. Despite pressure on McLaren with a three-stop plan, a late safety car altered the script unfavorably for Red Bull. Opting for new hard tyres proved ill-fated, failing to bring them up to speed for the restart. Verstappen’s susceptibility post-restart marked a turning point, showcasing Red Bull’s missteps in an intricate race scenario in Barcelona.
