Red Bull has taken a step forward with upgrades to its RB22 car at the Miami Grand Prix. The team reduced excess weight and plans further cuts to meet the minimum limit by the Austrian race.
After a challenging start to the 2026 Formula 1 season, Red Bull introduced a major upgrade package in Miami that included revised sidepods and a new floor. The changes addressed steering issues and delivered expected performance gains, allowing driver Max Verstappen to push harder. Verstappen described the progress as light at the end of the tunnel, though his fifth-place finish did not fully reflect the improved pace compared to the first three races.
