F1 | Red Bull, free practice analysis in Russia: a few too many difficulties

For Red Bull it was certainly not the best day of the season. The Austrian team had a few too many difficulties in the first two free practice sessions of the Russian Grand Prix. Verstappen in this case found problems in setting up the car: the balance did not seem optimal and he was the author of several errors. The track was certainly dirty, we saw some mistakes from more or less everyone, but the Dutchman seemed quite suffering in the first three hours on the track this weekend. The race pace with the softs was not the best, while with the mediums the times did not come close to those of Bottas and Hamilton, even today at a significantly higher level than the competition.
