Looking at the Sky pad replay, that tow was actually pretty good, he never had to lift.

I mean they expected to suffer here but the next two weekend could really give them a chance, depending on what Mclaren and Mercedes deliver
Why the next two races? McLarens new rear wing seems to have solved their top speed issues and now look faster than Red bull again. RBR back to being 4th fastest chassis, but the overall gaps have reduced.

The Mercedes just keeps going, it's a joke that the PU is getting ADUO. Max will be getting eaten by the cars behind him tomorrow, won't be a pretty race I reckon.

Also, shows the ground RBR have to make up, the Mercedes matched them in sector 2 while running less wing and destroyed them in the other 2, I know RBR were missing the macarena wing but still, these deployment heavy tracks are showing a clear gulf between the PUs.
This whole aduo stuff is preposterous, it's just so unfair it beggars belief. Almost looks made up to favour a certain team, to ensure at least a couple of years of dominance, as so many suggest.

I'ts plain to see the merc is miles ahead of everyone else, still they get to... improve it further? :lol:

Engineer Tom Hart would leave Red Bull for Williams after this year, but will now stay with Red Bull after all.

He will become the successor to Gianpiero Lambiase as Max Verstappen's race engineer. Even if Verstappen leaves, he will take over that role.

Yeah, it ensures their PU remains the best for 2 years, unless someone improves their car massively or Ferrari PU become competitive that it forces them to use their token early. But there are a lot of unknowns next year with the PU reg changes, maybe RBR will be allowed to change things that they were previously not allowed to touch. Still ADUO is making a mockery of the sport.
