2024 Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 Team

Everyone knows now what the situation is I think. Max's statements just confirm it more. At Monza they identified the issue. Makeshift corrective measures at Baku seemed to indicate that these assumptions were correct. Singapore will provide further data.

But they're all in on producing a new floor spec for Austin that aims to correct the stability issues entirely. Then it's about how much pace this can restore.

Frankly the writing has been on the wall for a long time about their development trajectory considering how quickly rivals were catching. I'm glad some issue of this magnitude was the cause otherwise it'd be hard to accept simply getting outdeveloped that hard

However Norris believes some people are “dismissing Red Bull too quickly” as four teams have emerged as potential race-winners this year.

“Checo [Perez] was very quick last weekend,” he told Sky. “Maybe, if not, one of the quickest cars the whole weekend, including the race.

“So I think they’re not maximising their results even when they do have quite a quick car, which was last weekend.”
“But I don’t think anyone should dismiss Red Bull. I think they were still probably quicker than us last weekend when you look at things. It means we still have to work hard, we have to improve. But consistently we are out-scoring them and that’s why we have to accept maybe not a perfect weekend sometimes, but maximise those weekends when we can get everything right.”

Maybe a little truth but I think its trying to deflect any pressure on him. Starting from pole a few races and his ability to convert them into wins has been pretty poor.
