Otmar Szafnauer says Red Bull's punishment 'fits the crime'

Otmar Szafnauer believes Red Bull’s budget cap punishment “fits the crime” and wanted to see the sport move on from the saga. “If we’re a half kilogram underweight on track we’re excluded from that particular race so I believe the punishment is a good one. I’m happy that both the FIA and Red Bull have come to their conclusion. They’re happy to move forward and so are we.”It was then put to the Romanian-American that Red Bull had not issued a public apology but he said he was not too interested in that. It’s about having the punishment fit the crime and moving forward.”Szafnauer also provided an insider’s perspective as to how much the wind tunnel time reduction would affect Red Bull and he said that while it was “not insignificant” it will not be crippling.

Russell stepped into the second Mercedes this season, the Mercedes junior promoted after three seasons running at the back of the field with Williams. “Lewis is still at his very best so to beat Lewis is just an unbelievable achievement. “That is a whole different story to when you are managing drivers fighting for race win after race win, or even a championship. Leading the race, Russell asked his engineer “are we racing or are we protecting the one-two” to be told they are “allowed to race”.

George Russell admits Mercedes are 'behind' Red Bull but backs development plan

George Russell has admitted that Mercedes look off the pace but have backed his team to make that up over the course of the season. Mercedes finished P13 and P15 on the second day of testing in Bahrain with Russell seeing his time in the car cut short due to a hydraulics issue. As such, Russell admitted that the team looked as if they were “behind” Red Bull but were confident that Mercedes would be able to make up that time as the season progressed. “I think this team has a history of being very good at development throughout a season. “So if I had to tell you right here, right now how it is probably going to pan out next week, I reckon we are going to be a little bit behind Red Bull.

F1 testing gallery as all 10 cars hit the track together for the very first time

2023 F1 testing is here, and that means we got to see all 10 challengers for the new campaign out there on the track. So, let’s take a look at the 10 challengers which will contest the F1 2023 season…Red BullRed Bull were one of the teams that opted for a livery reveal only with their F1 2023 challenger, so there was great intrigue when the covers came off and the real RB19 hit the track. The sidepods were the main point of attraction on the RB19, featuring an undercut that goes up to the middle of the car, a unique feature on the F1 2023 grid. With many expecting the RB19, W14 and Ferrari SF-23 to combine to create a three-way title battle in F1 2023, the pressure is on not to disappoint.

In other words, Max won it the Red Bull way. #F1 pic.twitter.com/nfNytbaQsw — Formula 1 (@F1) October 24, 2022Was this Mercedes’ last chance to win a race in 2022? Armed with their final upgrade package of the season, Mercedes had targeted the United States GP as a race where they could finally secure their first win of 2022. Even during their dominant period Mercedes were generally weaker relative to the opposition, notably Red Bull, in the high-altitude conditions of Mexico.
