“It was just part of our strategy of introducing parts into the pool, but something obviously has happened there and we need to get to the bottom of it and understand it and try to ensure that it doesn’t happen tomorrow.”Ĭhristian Horner: Max and the car have been on fire all weekend While Verstappen starts the race from a distant 15th, there’s still a realistic chance of victory for the Dutch driver given the pace advantage enjoyed by Red Bull at a track that encourages overtaking. “ wasn’t a concern coming into the race,” he said. Verstappen had been fitted with a completely new gearbox cassette and ancillaries after Friday’s practice sessions, having been heard complaining about long downshifts into the slow corners during FP2 – a seemingly precautionary measure.īut Horner explained that the gearbox change, which moved Verstappen onto two used gearboxes out of a permitted four for his season allocation, was actually strategic. Even though they stated their main focus for this season was to make the most powerful engine they could, with reliability in the background, Red Bull seems to be matching them for failures.Christian Horner says Red Bull had no reliability concerns ahead of qualifying, revealing the reason for Max Verstappen's gearbox change. While Red Bull is facing a mounting possibility of grid penalties for Max at the rate the car is tearing through multiple gearboxes, Ferrari seems to be making strides in the right direction. This is where Ferrari fans can rejoice, as Verstappen has just taken another gearbox, the fourth and last one he can take this season without suffering a grid penalty, and the season is very much still going with 11 more races yet to be disputed. Max is obviously the one who stands to lose the most from the reliability problems, being in contention for this year’s driver’s championship and fighting to defend the title he won last year. Of note is also the fact that Max complained about issues with his car during the qualifying stage of the Hungarian GP, which is a sign of concern for Red Bull as it led to Max being last in Q3. When it comes to Red Bull, reliability issues had not stopped after Bahrain race, with Perez failing to finish the Canadian GP and Verstappen scoring a big 0 in the points department after a DNF in the Australian GP. Two other Honda-powered cars have had catastrophic failures in races as well, with Gasly’s open-wheeler encountering electric issues leading to retirement in Bahrain while Tsunoda could not even start the race in Jeddah. However, we should not forget that Red Bull started this season in Formula One with a double DNF, and while things have gotten better with the team leading both championships, they did not completely get rid of all the gremlins in their car, as Max Verstappen finds himself taking the fourth gearbox of the season ahead of the Hungarian GP.
