Red Bull’s unprecedented invincible run came to an end in emphatic fashion in Singapore, with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez ☂only able to salvage fifth and eighth following a sho😼ck double Q2 elimination. 

The reigning world champions had won the 15 races prior to Singapore but Ferrari’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz claimed the first non-Red Bull victory of 2023, heading McLaren’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lando Norris and Hamilton’s Mercedes.

While Hamilton had no specific answer for Red Bull’s u🔯nexpected slump in Singapore, the seven-time world champion suspects they have long switched focus onto 2024.

“I d⛎on’t really know why they’re off, pace-wise,” Hamilton said. 

“But I think it’s great to see that others, like [McLaren and Ferr🌱ari] have picked up a huge amount of pace.

“It’s great to see that Ferrari have really stepped it up, and I think it’s a positive. Probably, if you think about it, they haven’t been developing🦹. Obviously, McLaren brought an upgrade here, others are bringing up upgrades.

“They’re [Red Bull] working on next year’s car so… they have less wind tunnel time, so they’re pro💖bably using some of this year’s for next year’s, they would have definitely m🔜igrated before us.

“So no, I think it’s just one of the things. The✨y’re so༺ clear ahead that maybe they’re developing their car less and we are still pushing to develop our current one. But time will tell.”

Race-wi✤nner Sainz has backed Red Bull to rediscover their supreme form at this weekend’s Japanese Grand Prix♏. 

“I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re still winning the last few ra🏅ces of the season,” the Spaniard said. 

“Singapore ꦡgave us the chance and we just did well. But𒐪 the Red Bull is going to be up there in the remainder of the season and they’re going to be very, very, very, very difficult to beat.

“It’s great for F1 if Ferrari, McLaren, Mercedes, Aston would be ♒that two, three-tenths quicker every race, to challenge them in race pace. 

"The rac𝓰ing this year would be incredible and it would be eight drivers fighting for wins, a bit like we saw in Singapore with four or five guys out there fighting for a win around a street track. It just shows the potential F1 has to create an incredible show.”

Norris was equally baffled by Red Bull’s struggles but does not exp🥂ect Singapore to spell t🃏he end of their F1 dominance. 

“I don’t ﷽know what they struggled with this weekend but when I൲ watched Max’s onboard from qualifying, I kind of laughed because I’ve never seen a car that bad before,” he said. 

“But Max also ✱laughed about it. So, we’ll see next weekend. I think they’ll probably be back at the top.”
