Max Verstappen and Red Bull plucked another victory out of a difficult weekend in Barcelona, just as they did at Imola three races ago. As at the Italian venue, a major rethink on the car’s wing level was made into Saturday – but in this case in the opposite direction, from a smaller wing to a bigger one.
This came as the team incorporated their latest upgrades on the car, making it quite a complex weekend, especially with the big variation in track temperatures from Friday to Saturday.
