Red Bull défend ses choix de réglages après les critiques de Verstappen

Red Bull Racing a décroché son premier podium de la saison lors du Grand Prix du Canada à Montréal. Ce résultat fait suite à une séance de qualifications difficile au cours de laquelle Max Verstappen a terminé sixième, exprimant ses inquiétudes quant aux choix de réglages effectués par l'écurie.

Verstappen s'est dit surpris par ce résultat sur le podium, soulignant qu'il s'était senti plus à l'aise avec la voiture à Miami. Il a attribué ce dénouement à l'abandon de George Russell et aux problèmes de stratégie de McLaren. Le pilote néerlandais a déclaré avoir signalé à plusieurs reprises des orientations préférables que l'équipe n'a pas suivies, choisissant finalement de démontrer les problèmes rencontrés à travers les résultats.
