2026 Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 Team

[avantman]

Average race pace (after removing non representative laps) :
ANT - unrepresentative since he drove many laps with damaged car
LEC - 93.779
RUS - 93.997
HAM - 94.039
VER - 94.064

VER had really good race pace, considering the sub-optimal, unbalanced car without setup/PU change from Quali. He was on for P3. Pity it was the same rear wing issue as Austria.

Novice Q :
- How is the SLM mode deactivated ?
Brake application or manual button press ?

Lmao. The amount of cope. Just look up actual lap time data, compare Max and Kimi pace on stint 1.

How many laps till we have Max on the radio hearing the same issues

Everything Max said during the race and after (video with quotes):

Was funny when GP said "Yeah your deployment is **** but you make up the time in the corners"



That's not how it should work

Terrible result. The race in itself was disappointing with a subpar pace but could have turned into a podium by a well time VSC pitstop, but then it happenned.

All the optimism after RB ring is immediately gone and now seeing how Max hate this car, it's extremely doubtful something can be salvaged this season. This update was the last joker to try having a Mclaren moment and turn the season. But it's still slow and now create crashes.

Very sad.

Even Toto saw what happened at the Red Bull Ring for what it was. In short: it was all Max. He’d been winning there long before 2021 in a vastly inferior car. His teammates, meanwhile, couldn’t even get on the podium.

Looking at Norris pace during Sprint and also the pace he was maintaining in super old medium on the first stint during the race — I think he underdrove that car massively there, I’d say Mclaren was the faster car this weekend.

I do not understand your answer? What was Max fault? How McLaren was supposed to be the fastest car when they were quite slow during the race?

Totally unacceptable from a top team to have this kind of issue 2 times in a row. A nice podium place wasted. Of course they sacked their chief designer Craig Skinner, and Monaghan also wants to leave. But they told us that Horner was all the problem. They should have kept Horner.

The pace seems improved under race conditions as I would rate Silverstone as one of the weakest tracks for this car.
Spa will be again a challenge.

It did not look improved today or during the week end. The sprint race went badly, and the main race, on the hard tyres, the pace was horrendous, and only the battle of Russell and Hamilton prevented them from an easy overtake on Max.

The VSC was a lucky timing but it proved useless as the car crashed itself. Not only the pace was not better today but also the car has proved to be dangerous to drive and unreliable.

Max is running into a lot of mechanical issues with this new version of the car.

Do we know better why his request of a new engine was not accepted?

What is this rear wing issue? It seemed to be closed? Has Isack and Max different wings?

I mean in comparison to the older packages of course.
Pretty sure they would have got
slaughtered around this track with everything they had pre Miami and we would be talking about a deficit of one second or more.

This is not cope. It's just data from formula-timer.com , which includes all stints. Kimi was way faster, there is no need to compare, as I mentioned in my post above, where I put Kimi as the fastest.

The problem is 'prejudice'/'confirmation bias' that leads to "lmao". Keep laughing.

The rear wing closes but not at the same amount as before which turns into a larger slot gap resulting in a loss of rear downforce.

“Ver had a really good pace…” is a cope.. it’s not data.
This is the data:

perhaps your confirmation bias didn't allow you to read this :
"considering the sub-optimal, unbalanced car without setup/PU change from Quali"

Anyway, posting raw data is meaningless, find out the average of Norris and Verstappen, and get back. I am sure you will find Norris slower. Kimi shouldn't even be considered, he was leagues ahead with race pace, which I mentioned in the original post itself.

But if you insist on "I want the last laugh" and want to play a ping-pong game, I'm out.
Opinions are like a*******s, everyone has one.
