2009 F1 world champion Jenson Button has dismissed Red Bull’s hopes of wi🌃nning this year’s constructors’ championship.

Ahead of the United States Grand Prix this weekend, Red ⛎Bull trail McLaren by 41 points in the teams’ standings.

Ferrari are closer to Red Bu💃ll than🌺 the reigning champions are to McLaren.

The Scuderia are just 34 points behind with six rounds to go, and given 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez’s poor f💫orm, Red Bull could 𓃲slip to third in the order.

All of the major teams are expected to bring significant upgrade packages to the Circuit of the Americas for the 𒆙final s🤡tretch of the season.

Assessing the constructors’ battle ahead of this weekend, Button believes Red Bull have zero cha🎉nce of ov🐈erturning the 41-point gap to McLaren and that they should be more worried about Ferrari behind.

He told the Sky Sports F1 podcast: “I can’t remember the last time a team ever winning the drivers’ but finishing third in the constructors’. I am sure someone is going to let🧸 me know.

“That’s extreme, right? It shows how good a job Max has done as well in the car. I can’t see Red⛦ Bull beating McLaren right now.

“I r💦eally can’t in terms of any race until the end of the season out-scoring them but I can see Ferrari challenging Red⛦ Bull.

“I don’t think it wi🎃ll be every race they will be scoring more points but there’s every possibilit♏y Ferrari will beat Red Bull.

“There’s much mor𝓰🌠e of a chance of Ferrari beating Red Bull than Red Bull beating McLaren.”

Keke Rosberg won the 1982 F1 world champion♛ship foꦐr Williams.

However, the Grove outfit could only secure fourth in the𒆙 teams’ order🔯.

I🐻n recent seasons, the winner of the drivers’ championship has🌺 tended to lead their team to the constructors’.

The last time this d꧒idn’t happen was in 2021, with Verstappen winning the drivers’, while Mercedes took the constructors’.
