F1 | Red Bull, slim pickings after the two races at Zeltweg

For the Red Bull the Zeltweg double round was certainly very difficult. It was expected that verstappen, top man of the Austrian team could have come away with at least one victory, if not even two. It is clear that a third and fourth place on two races cannot make the team leaders happy, with Christan Horner primarily.

“Although it's nice to be on the podium for the first time this season, I have to say it's disappointing not to have the pace to fight for the win – Chris Horner said. Mercedes was faster than us and had more strategic options. We tried to mark them with Max, the medium tire was fine, but he suffered some damage to the front wing due to a violent contact with the curbs, and this didn't help him keep the tires alive. He fought with Bottas until the end, but third position was the best. Alex had some problems at the start, after the pit stop his pace improved and he worked hard to maintain fourth place over Perez, who was very fast. Great effort from the guys at the factory for the updates brought this weekend to try to close the gap. Now let's look at Hungary, it's nice to be able to race again."
