Rear wing problems for Red Bull
“I saw something very fast on the straight. At the top of the screen (on the straight line if the rear spoiler is open with DRS) you can see the Honda logo snap. This is not the way it should be. It has happened several times this year. “ Doorbos said of Verstappen’s previous issues this year. According to Doornbos, you’ll also see Verstappen inspect his rear wing after qualifying.
Of course, he didn’t radio this on board, but he realizes that there might be something wrong with the DRS. He touches it with his hand for a moment. A weak point of the Red Bull car: the rear wing. Cracks, DRS that don’t work ”, concludes the former Formula 1 driver.
