Red Bull team principal, Christian Horner, has praised Renault for its efforts that went into the vastly improved power unit used since the Monaco Grand Prix. The new engine went through a real test in the power track of Montreal and it proved to be a big step forward which makes Red Bull hopeful for the remainder of the season.

2. Agree
3. Sainz was slow at that point... because he was stuck behind traffic. Max complained (as usual) trying to obtain one of those frequent presents from the wall (Carlos, let Max pass), but since he didn´t get it, he tried to overtake by himself, and almost ruin the race for the whole team when he crashed with his team mate
Anycase I think these are normal mistakes for someone that young. Including his arrogance. The problem becomes more serious when the team does not stop him and even promote it. Because disobeying TOs and the team doing nothing is exactly that, specially when his team mate let him pass several times before he was asked to do the same.
The message is crystal clear: you can do whatever you want, even disobeying those who pay your salary. I don´t think that´s the best approach to manage an almost adolescent character.
IMHO these kind of approach is very risky, specially for the driver. If he really is as good as some think then teams will cope with that problematic character, but if he´s not then his F1 career could be really short, because no F1 team will cope with someone who disobey TOs if he´s not one of the fastest F1 drivers out there.
For RBR that´s not a problem tough, as they only want winners and if you´re not they have lots of drivers to replace you. Max and Jos should keep this in mind before doing in RBR what they did in STR.
Max is being promoted for acting the way he has, he has nothing to be careful of.
From what I understand it was actually Carlos that has broken the interteam agreements first in both '15 and '16.
I would like to see this, just to see some surprised faces in RB haharingo wrote:To me both are very equal drivers but Max takes more chances. This gives him that X factor that you see with most champions. He is more fearless than Carlos. Carlos, being older, is more methodical about his work and seems to be looking on long term career and he avoids making blunders which would somewhat tarnish his reputation. I don't see much difference between them talent wise. Max just has a knack for grasping the opportunities without second guessing.
There is a risk of his career being burning out quicker than Carlos'.
As for Daniil, i think this guy is going to transform into a beast back at torro rosso. I'm going to bet that he makes it on the podium another time before Ricciardo and Max do.
Button retired on lap 7 with Vandoorne right behind him and both on the same strategy.Godius wrote:rscsr wrote:I absolutely think that Max Verstappen has to match Daniel Ricciardo from the first race onwards.

Button was heading for 6th place finish in Bahrain but had an retirement, while Stoffel nearly got in the points.

Article on the new Renault, 30 horses expected.
I had no arguments here, I was only asking for clarification about a statement wich, IMHO, was bold and free. This oneflynfrog wrote:SR, Andres,
Give up on your driver arguments nobody cares but you two. I have deleted the posts please don't make more.
As I can´t see one single reason to state it was Carlos who broke anything. But I agree this is OT, so let´s move onSR71 wrote:From what I understand it was actually Carlos that has broken the interteam agreements first in both '15 and '16.

I think he did incredibly good, stayed within 0,2.. very impressive so far.

But remember Max has a long-term contract in his pocket now with a guaranteed Red-Bull drive. He does not need to go out this weekend and beat any particular person. He can get to know the car a little bit over the next two or three races and work up to it as he wants, perhaps even sandbag a bit to throw off Ricciardo.
I'm a Ricciardo fan but I won't read much into it if Ricciardo beats Max this weekend. Yes by the end of the season we'll know the story.
