Red Bull last year had 3 or 4 wins with the Renault Engines. This year with the Honda engines they are nowhere near the first two places.
These 3-4 wins are spread over a COMPLET season as already stated, the win in China was lucky last year, then it took RB till Monaco to take another win, then it was a suprised win in Austria after that they had to wait till Mexico for there 4th win.

It would also be unfair to compare Mclaren and Renault with Red Bull at the moment because Red Bull has a better chassis. A better comparison is with Torro Rosso who at the moment is getting trashed by both teams.
why is the comparison unfair? do both teams driving in F1 or did i missed something?
and where is Toro Rosso being trashed...… Albon drove from pit lane to 10th, could he got that if the 2 McLarens weren't damaged….. who knows maybe, maybe not, but we can never tell.
Kvyat got penalized (if this was a good decision i can't tell because i haven't seen the race)

1)Red Bull is nowhere near last year levels.
2) Where exactly do you see delivered promises?
1) they are... considering they had 55 points last year around this time (with the lucky win of RIC in china) and now they have 52 points.
and they are having a new driver in the RB (of which i am not convinced, but that is another story)
2) Honda gave RB EXACTLY what they promised because that, as Alonso said, "GP2 Engine" is now par or even a bit ahead of Renault engine.
better asked which of the teams has had more DNF due to engine related problems?

And finally we all know how many times Verstappen is causing collisions. Any driver of Championship material would be able to avoid risking a collision if they know they are faster.
you have to ask WHY did Verstappen had to take so many risks? partially he does it because he races, on the other hand he had to take to risks because the racepace of the RB last year was almost the same as that of the mercs and ferrari but he had to make up places because the engine they had wasn't powerfull enough in quali.
and honestly said those risks paid off, after race 6 he was way behind in WDC, he ended up 4th in this standing with only a few points behind RAI.
And how many collisions did Verstappen caused this year?

Also if by experts you refer to the Stewards I wouldn't trust them much since many times they have made mistakes.
who says i meant the stewards, and if you don't trust them or better said swallow the opinion of Crofty & Co then why should we have stewards anyway?
so this argument is mildly said….. weak

The fact remains that they destroyed our race two times in a row which could have resulted in many more points. Perhaps a better solution would be that some drivers should not even be in F1.
The fact is in Bahrain it was rated as a race incident nothing more nothing less, and i say this because i don't start this discussion again, although i have a clear opinion about it (which wouldn't change the outcome of the decision the stewards made)
and again as said i can't say anything about the accident in China because i haven't seen the race.
And please stop saying RB and TR are one and the same, because they aren't (they both have there own budget)
so
if(a big if) i would agree to your opinion "they race was ruined due to" it was a TR mistake not a RB.
and now you made me curious on which driver shouldn't be in F1?
the only one i could think of in the current field are Grosjean and Stroll.
Kubica & Russel still has to prove himself, although i am afraid they won't do it due to a bad car.
Norris and Albon already proved themselves to be F1-material.
The rest of the drivers are on there places where they should be (again with Gasly i have my doubts)
so far to answer to your opinion …..
back to my original statement, "to see your hopes crushed by a Renault failure .... again"
which of the cars had more DNF due to engine problems? Cars that were Renault powered or Honda powered?
