Red Bull has lost two of the last three Formula 1 races, with Max Verstappen’s win at the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix being 0.7 seconds ahead of Lando Norris, who finished second.
while Axis of difficulties Red Bull The Mercedes technical director focused on the RB20’s problems with curbs and potholes, James AllisonIt is believed that there is another reason.
Let us take into account that the large package of improvements that Red Bull introduced to Imola, which included a new floor and a front wing, may not have meant the step that was expected, but quite the opposite.
“I think once there is a track with normal cornering speeds, it will be fast again, but It looks like your update discount“, Allison explained at the Canadian Grand Prix when talking about Red Bull’s problems.
“So let’s keep our fingers crossed that this really hurts them. This [que una mejora no funcione] It complicates your life, because the moment you stop trusting your tools, you have to go back and lose time. “Time is your greatest friend, and losing it is your worst enemy.”
Asked if seeing Red Bull dropped from the pack made Mercedes smile, Allison said: “Everyone likes to see other people’s misery in this world.”

Mercedes has introduced several new parts to its W15 car during this weekend’s Canadian Grand Prix to help increase the good effect of the new front wing that George Russell has already used in Monaco.
The team hopes that these changes, which include some modifications to the front suspension system, will help improve their car’s performance in high- and low-speed corners.
but, Despite the progress made on the car, Allison didn’t want to drift too much Because of the difference they still have compared to the cars in front of them.
“I have to admit that I’m not thinking generally. I just think that where we are now seems a little better than where we were a couple of races ago. And with a little luck, we’ll be better in a few races.”
“We went from being underwhelming, not good enough, at the start of the year, to being close to fighting,” he concluded. “Getting a little bit better will put us straight into the crowd.”
