📰: Max Verstappen says every major 2026 upgrade has worked for Red Bull, and he sees that as a key sign of hope for 2027. “Everything we introduced on the car this year worked. That’s very positive.” Red Bull’s new wind tunnel, expected to be operational around February 2027, could also help in-season development. Verstappen is 8 points behind Hamilton in the standings, but says P2 or P3 means nothing to him: “We don’t win. We don’t become world champion.”

😂 Max Verstappen vs. the data!
🗣️ Mekies: “Max came out of the car after 3 laps in Barcelona and said, ‘There’s something wrong with the car.’ We checked everything, but the computer said it was fine.”
🗣️ Max: “Which then triggers me!” 💀
Max trusts his instincts more than the computer. 😂
max about the car: “i would always say ‘design whatever is quickest and i’ll adapt to whatever is quickest’ normally. that’s how i see it with the car aerodynamically and stuff like that, like whenever you put upgrades on the car.
you need to design whatever’s quickest and i’ll adapt to it.”
