In the run-up to the Turkish Grand Prix, Red Bull has chosen to give Max Verstappen a new gearbox. Normally this is only allowed after the gearbox has lasted six races. That was not the case, but the Dutchman does not have to accept a penalty.
Because he dropped out last race weekend, it is allowed to change a gearbox without any consequences. That is why the gearbox change remains without consequences for the Dutchman, who will start with a ‘fresh’ gearbox for the next four races.
2020 has turned out to be a lost year for Red Bull. Can the team turn the tide in 2021 with Max Verstappen? All this and more in the latest Formula 1 podcast from RacingNews365, with Tom Coronel, Ruud Dimmers and Thomas van Groningen.
