Red Bull’s Struggles Continue as McLaren Surges Ahead of Max Verstappen at Imola GP Practice

Red Bull faced another setback as McLaren outperformed them during practice sessions leading up to the Imola Grand Prix, leaving Max Verstappen trailing behind. Despite bringing upgrades to their car, including a reworked engine cover and rear suspension, Red Bull still found themselves lacking in pace compared to their rivals.

Verstappen expressed his disappointment, acknowledging that they were “not fast enough at the moment.” The Dutch driver even admitted to being overtaken by McLaren during long runs, emphasizing the gap in performance between the two teams. Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko echoed these sentiments, stating that McLaren was still “four tenths ahead,” a significant margin in Formula 1.

While Red Bull has shown some progress since the challenging Miami weekend, where they finished far behind McLaren, it seems they still have work to do to catch up. Marko highlighted that despite improvements, they have not closed the gap enough to be competitive with McLaren. The team will need to focus on enhancing their corner balance to improve their speed on the track.

As the competition heats up heading into qualifying and the race, all eyes will be on Red Bull to see if they can bridge the gap with McLaren and secure a stronger performance. With McLaren continuing to showcase superior performance, Red Bull faces an uphill battle to challenge for top positions in the upcoming Grand Prix.
