Without the change in regulations, RBR would have looked really good for the second half of the season in a “normal” year... But, with the Budget Cap and the need to focus on 2022 with very little to learn from this year that can be used the next one, I’m afraid RBR won’t go through that second half development phase of previous years
Actually I think the Cap & looming 2022 give Max a chance to win.
If, big IF, if Mercedes switch to 2022, RB can instead keep upgrading in order to win with Max.
Yes, this will probably compromise their 2022 chassis.
But, thats their chance! 0 warranty they will be better positioned next year.
I'll argue that next year the competition will be even more fierce - Mclaren will have mature integration with Mercedes engine, Ferrari will no doubt make another engine-step, Alpine is unknown, Mercedes.... ahhhh what if they bring Russel and he is indeed as good as it seems?
So, if I was CH/DM/MV, and mind you Honda, I'd go all guns blazing for winning in 2021.
Whatever it takes.
I agree with that. I think it’s more worthwhile for Red Bull to sacrifice a bit of 2022 to bring home the bacon in 2021 than it is for Mercedes. This could be the best opportunity for the foreseeable future given 2022 is such an unknown. Of course I expect them to be right at the sharp end, but you just don’t know with such a big change on the horizon. The engine is a question mark as well, also due to change.

High risk strategy. Max could've gone nuts when he entered his room and the team rubbed-in the fact Lewis has a 100 poles.

Pace is not there, how are you gonna answer anything? Strategy that mercedes is pulling right now only works because they are faster in the first place. Same as hungary 2019.

They are not going to win anything this season if they continue this way. Fresh new set of red tires and they decide to leave him out because computer says Hamoltin will catch him last lap. Pure gold!

At least try it. Not stay out being a mobile chicane. Same as Hungary 2019. Enough pace to defend at least. Not with a 30lap tires.

Losers!

Seriously, defend what? Hamilton has already overtaken him at that point.

disaapointed to the core. what a driver max is atleast giving fight to lewis be in first corner or till last lap. car was a let down today. after he overtook at start i thought RB will be able to defend and win.
