Red Bull’s team boss Christian Horner described the Mercedes F1 car as “undrivable”. If you’ve seen the Interlagos Grand Prix you will know why. After Hamilton cleared the field, he shot forward, leaving Max Verstappen no chance to catch up with him. He crossed the finish line ten seconds before Verstappen, which is almost unheard of.
According to Red Bull, the Mercedes was almost 30 km / h faster on the lap in which it passed Verstappen. That’s a huge gap and it’s important now that F1 is heading for one of the fastest tracks. Red Bull made no secret of the fact that something is wrong with Hamilton’s rear wing. Verstappen even received a massive fine for just touching it.
Red Bull is not going to complain, however. According to Horner, they want to understand where the speed comes from. He is also on record that it is the FIA’s job to oversee the sport and trusts them to do it.
The tension between these two teams is insane, almost personal. At the moment Red Bull is taking the higher point by not addressing the FIA with a protest. For now…
