Red Bull is the team the FIA is investigating. This Thursday, it was announced that a team was breaking the rules and changing the heights of parc ferme. And the ‘BBC’ confirmed that it was the energy drink team. AND Max Verstappen reacted to this news during the United States Grand Prix.
And he didn’t give it any importance. In fact, he ensured that this button was visible to everyone and that anyone could have seen it a long time ago.
This is what the championship leader said: “Nothing happened at all. It is open to everyone, everyone can see it and it is a simple tool when disassembling parts. But once the car is built, you can’t touch it. So for us, it doesn’t change anything.”
“When I read it, I was thinking about how a team could do this, and then I found out it was related to our team.. We didn’t even talk about it in a single meeting,” says the three-time world champion and on his way to the fourth in a row.
Austin’s Improvements
Red Bull brought new things to Austin. Even if this famous button at the top will have to be changed, they also have new parts. But Max requires patience. “We’ll have to rely more on the data because with just one practice session it’s quite difficult. You get in the car, it’s the package and you try to find the balance and find the best possible settings “You have to trust the engineers more,” explains the Dutchman.
“I don’t expect us to suddenly have a dominant car, we’ve had these limitations in the car almost all season and now we’re trying to improve it,” Max said.
And he specifies that if the car is competitive, he will be at the top: “When the car is able to achieve a good result, I will comply with the results and when this is not possible, it will be a little more difficult. Of course I want to win races and championships, if it goes well and if it doesn’t, that’s life…”
