168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen believes it’s unlikely Red Bull will be able to challenge McLaren at this weekend’s F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, even with sign🐠ificant improvements overnight.

Red Bull endured a difficult Friday at the Yas Marina Circuit, with Verstappen setting the 16th-faste🍸st time in t🎐he second practice session.

Verstappen 🌊lamented the ride quality of his R🐼B20 in FP2, saying over team radio: “It’s bad. It’s really my problem with the car. The front axle is just not working.”

Red Bull will be hoping to replicate their feat in Qatar, wꦫhere they transformed a car that was arguably fifth-fastest in the sprint into a race-winning contender on Sunday.

Speaking after the sessi�ꦑ�on in Abu Dhabi, Verstappen said: “Just not a very good balance, to be honest. Just no connected balance from entry to mid-corner, and that makes it difficult to push. That’s something we have to work on overnight.

“I am sure that we can do better. I am not saying🐬 we will be McLaren level – they seem quicꦉk so far this weekend.

“At least if we can fight in that top six, that will be a good recovery because, so far, it’s been quite tricky🌺.”

Perez agrees with Verstappen

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez’s feedback was similar to Verstappen’s, with both drivers complaining about how disconnected the car feels from front t🐟o rear.

The Mexican𝐆, who could൩ be racing in F1 for the final time this weekend, fared slightly better than Verstappen in FP2, setting the 14th-fastest time.

Reflecting on the session, Perez said: “It was tricky. Over one lap it’s quite tricky. I think we’ve got some work tꦚo do.

“I think the long run is a lot more promising. Over 𓆉one lap, 💜we need to try and connect the car.

“We’ve been trying a lot of stuff out ꦿthere. It’s just not coming togetherꦡ at the moment.”

Red Bull have already secured the drivers’ championsh๊ip with Verstappen.

However, in terms of the🍬 constructors’ title, they’re out of content🌊ion heading into the final race of the season on Sunday.

For Perez, he 🃏will want to end the 🐲season on a high, with reports suggesting he could be on his way out of Red Bull.

Perez has struggled for form since the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, failing to finish on thꦑe podꦕium since China back in April.

The Mexican’s stuttering performances have left Red Bull third in the constructors’ championship, meaning they’re set for thei🅰r worst finish since 2019.
