Good 1st session, with the new update package Max didn't seem to have any big problems. We don't know the fuel/deployment levels but this might have been the most competitive the Red Bull has looked this season in corners judging from the telemetry the caveat being that MCL barely did any running(issues) and ANT had problems midway through, still I'd say package has improved the downforce, this car has not been used to setting purple mini sectors in corners this season.

Did the car had updates? I thought that Red Bull stopped development of RB22 to focus on the 2027 car.

Q: Laurent, there are quite a few upgrades on the Red Bull car this weekend. Is that the last major upgrade package for this season? How much focus is now going into next year’s car?

LM: Yes, you’re right. It’s most probably our last significant package. We have switched a significant part of our resources, a very large majority of our resources, on next year’s car now. It doesn’t mean that we don’t look at this season. At first, we are still chasing our first win. That’s an important target for the team. And second, as you know, the regulations have only very little changes for next year and there are huge opportunities for us to continue to learn in the remaining races and to make sure we arrive as prepared as we can for next year. But in short, yes, it’s the last significant upgrade for this year.
