2025 Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 Team

So basically they are rolling the dice to get a decent setup after retiring the car from parc fermè ? good luck.

Is it really rolling the dice? Feels like a no brainer to me as they have nothing to lose. It can't get any worse.

I'm sure with the data they have now, plus I would imagine work being done back at HQ, they have an idea as to the direction they need to go. Plus a new engine. Plus removing the risk of the senna s' at the start.

Max won't get anywhere near a podium as it stands. With this, IF they get the car in the window, he just might.

as competitive as it looks at the front, I'd think a podium is out of reach, even if they nail the setup perfectly. There likely won't be much between 1st and 3rd today.

In one video I can summarize this season. No other words are needed



Maybe just this. Its better to laugh now then to cry, the reality is here. Also how is Max that near Mclaren drivers is a question of the century. Mclaren should be leading with this dominant car by at least 100-125 points by now. A mega season by him in this car, he gave it all, brough 5 wins and many pole positions to us. And quite a lot of joy. Its over now, next year he will have that number 33 again, but it has taken long 5 years for someone to stop him. Let that sink in.

The weather looks worse than predicted but early of course.
Could be a damp beginning.

The title was alwyas going to need McLaren disasterclass with Red Bull perfection. We are getting the opposite

Some chaos in the front is always welcome

I think the car won't have enough pace to pass any of the top 3 teams. Most optimistic result is P7 in my view.

Lots of people are expecting miracles because of the new engine on twitter lol, new engines aren't worth much anymore, there's very little performance loss over their lifetime.

I agree that P7 would be good result, starts are one the best places to make up positions and Max is starting in the pit, so every overtake will be hard. Will need a lot of luck do get good points.

Nobody says Max will get a NEW PU. They changed the PU. He also has no grid penaly. Only pitlane start for breaking parc fermé.

penalties aren't announced this early. The Race, among others, specifically said that he will take a new PU:

"Max Verstappen will start Formula 1’s Brazilian Grand Prix from the pitlane after Red Bull decided to break parc ferme in order to change the car spec and set-up, as well as take a new Honda power unit.

[...] the introduction of a completely new power unit including all elements, which takes Verstappen beyond his allocation for the year, might prove to be the most significant change as it will also give him extra flexibility across the final three events. That would have triggered a grid penalty but this is not a factor in a case where breaking parc ferme has already led to a pitlane start."

Makes no sense not doing it. Time will reveal the truth so no point fighting over something like this right now
