2025 Oracle Red Bull Racing F1 Team

"Impatiently waiting to see Yuki's Miami fit".

Impatiently waiting to see Max because (his jet) he is still in Monaco (11 hours flight)!??

This is being said by someone with no credibility:

The sprint race weekend in Miami does not offer any opportunities to introduce major update packages. Most teams will simply adapt the cars to the characteristics of the circuit, although Red Bull is reportedly bringing a new floor. It fits within the development plan of the team of Max Verstappen and Yuki Tsunoda, after which the biggest update will follow in Imola.

it was already rumoured by better sources that they may bring Imola package to Miami if it's ready

One of the Autoracer journalists wrote on Twitter in a now-deleted tweet that parts of the Imola upgrade may appear in Miami : "Red Bull has two deadlines in a few weeks: Imola (possibly Miami), where it will debut the first update package"

I copied this directly from the translation of a tweet by Autoracer employee on twitter but I can't find it now. edit: it's now deleted

Additionally it makes more sense for rushing upgrades to be possible now because they can bring it to just 1 car (max) this year. In 2023 and 2024 red bull didn't bring a single upgrade to checo's car later than Max's - it's never been confirmed directly publicly but it's obvious that checo's first contract extension with red bull prevented the 2nd driver from receiving upgrades later. That stipulation has almost certainly been done away with now that it's a red bull junior in 2nd seat

We'll get more definitive news about Miami upgrades soon (most likely tomorrow) from better sources than filsetti (van Haren, Autoracer)

That Perez clause if true, would be far from ideal. One of the best ways they have to fix (or improve) correlation issues is run simultaneously with different parts on both cars.
