Racing Bulls reporte ses améliorations à Miami et Montréal après des annulations

Racing Bulls introduira deux améliorations lors des prochaines courses de Formule 1 à Miami et à Montréal, initialement prévues pour le Grand Prix de Bahreïn annulé. Ces changements découlent de la pause forcée d'avril due à l'annulation des épreuves de Bahreïn et d'Arabie saoudite en raison du conflit au Moyen-Orient. Le directeur de l'équipe, Alan Permane, a décrit cela comme un double impact rapide.

Le Grand Prix de Bahreïn, initialement ciblé pour la première mise à jour majeure de Racing Bulls, a été supprimé ainsi que la course en Arabie saoudite en raison du conflit au Moyen-Orient. Cela a créé une pause de cinq semaines en avril, repoussant les développements de l'équipe italienne au Grand Prix de Miami du 1er au 3 mai et au Grand Prix de Montréal du 22 au 24 mai. Alan Permane, patron de Racing Bulls, a expliqué la situation aux médias, dont Motorsport.com. 'Nous avions une mise à jour assez correcte prévue pour Bahreïn, que nous verrons à Miami', a-t-il déclaré. 'Nous avions une autre mise à jour prévue pour Montréal, nous aurons donc un double impact rapide à ce moment-là.'
