2024 Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 Team

[AR3-GP]

I think Max is doing his long run on the medium set that might have minor bit of flat spotting on the front left, but he did say the tires were "okay" when he went back to the pits after he stopped at T5 earlier in the session.

Verstappen had some kind of PU issue in Monza so it might just be that Red Bull are stretching the mileage on some very old PUs for free practice with his car. They don't have any margin with the PU pool to waste engine life in free practice. Perez's pool seems in a better place. I don't see any difference in the rear wings.

seems plausible

are you still sure he will get to the end without more engine penalties ?

I am optimistic about the weekend for the first time in ages

If Perez is fast then the car is behaving better

Red Bull looks good? Perez is usually far off from the pace in FP2.

Yes. best rb20 has looked since spa

Monza 2024 was like Mercedes in Bahrain last year. One of the darkest Sundays in Red Bull Racing history. It's good to see a bounce back of sorts.

good first day, but let's wait when things get serious

I'd only say it was a good first day for Perez. I'm not convinced about Verstappen yet. He and the team have work to do otherwise it could still be a bad day tomorrow.

A bit bittersweet from Horner, maybe.

yes

I also read that they have different floor configuration, is this true ? work to do overnight

what is Horner on here ? it always happens that a technician is announced before he ends gardening leave

[AR3-GP]

I also think Verstappen did his long run on the set of mediums that he partially flat spotted at the start of FP2. He said after the incident that he thought he could continue.

Much better looking for Red Bull here. Ferrari seems to be in the mix again.

Suggestions that only Perez is running the new diffuser?

Saw Max and Perez with an onboard camera. The car is just different in terms of handling than in last 2 races, just a tiny bit of understeer. Otherwise it felt the same as in Japan this year or China, not like a "boat" in the last two races. Tomorrow we will know more, hopefully we can at least fight with a proper car. A fast Perez usually means an even faster Max...
