It is confirmed by van Haren that Red Bull remanufactured the launch spec floor for Max
Old floor the solution?
Verstappen drove during the first training on Friday, and then also on Saturday, with the (reproduced) floor that he also drove with at the very beginning of this season. Just to show how much they are investigating at Red Bull how they can make the car for Verstappen
Crazy that they had to reintroduce the first spec.organic wrote: ↑24 Aug 2024, 20:16It is confirmed by van Haren that Red Bull remanufactured the launch spec floor for Max

I guess they're really investigating what issues were introduced by upgrades etc
In the media at the previous few weekends Max was repeatedly saying how the car was balanced at the beginning of the season but not recently. It could be that he pushed for the return to launch spec floor.
I see this as a positive in the longer term. Max said they had to wake up. This is waking up. They were pushing updates that were not working before. Now they stopped.organic wrote: ↑24 Aug 2024, 20:16It is confirmed by van Haren that Red Bull remanufactured the launch spec floor for Max

That was because of the wind. That's also why Norris didn't put a lap together until the very end and probably why Piastri dropped it too.FittingMechanics wrote: ↑24 Aug 2024, 20:53But if I am not mistaken, his balance was not good today either.
Yeah it is far better than hearing the "lalala everything is fine this is just convergence" from Horner for the last 10 rounds. Only hope they can develop solutions early enough to be implemented for the rb21

I didn't expect Red Bull to shine in Zandvoort, McLaren is just too strong at high downforce tracks, however I do wonder if there will ever be any track at which Max can be a genuine pole/win contender.
