“I expect Red Bull to bring some great development to Silverstone, at least that’s what I imagine, we’ll try to understand how it works compared to what we’ll bring, but we’ll judge better on track,” the team principal was quoted as saying by Motorsport.
It will be the weekend when the “modest evolution” that Red Bull had announced , is reflected on the track towards Sunday’s race, the tenth date of the season.
