Red Bull: after Max Verstappen, even dadà Jos raises alarm
Red Bull è came out significantly downsized from the Zandvoort GP, which è ended with a domination of Lando Norris, who è won the GP by rifilando well 20 seconds of gap to the idol of the house Max Verstappen. Speaking at the microphones of the Dutch newspaper "De Telegraaf", Jos Verstappen è expressed himself bluntly about the result and the competitiveness of the Austrian team.
"Maybe I shouldn’t say this, but I will anyway. The fact that we have to go back to the car of the beginning of the year would be enough to explain the situation that Red Bull is experiencing. Right now this car does not have what it takes to win the title. I think we should look in the mirror and try to find a solution as soon as possible" began the father of Max Verstappen.
"The fact that Max can win the championship again this year is notè a certainty. He is doing everything he can every week to win as many points as possible. We will see, but it is not è certain that he will be able to reconfirm himself" added Jos Verstappen.
In the post race of the Zandvoort GP, Max Verstappen himself also did not hide his concern ahead of the continuation of the season: "The gap from Lando è big and è something that I do not like to see, forò è the realityà at the moment. It will be very hard to stay in the lead in both rankings. We have to start winning races again to control the rankings, we can’t rely on anything else. There are so many things to analyze and look at, that è what we have to do".
Verstappen still commands the overall standings with a 70-point lead over Norris, while as far as the constructors’ standings are concerned, Red Bull leads with 434 points, 30 more than McLaren, which è at 404.
