Red Bull wing failure 'super-dangerous' - Verstappen
Image via BBC SportMax Verstappen has voiced serious concerns over a rear wing failure on his Red Bull car that led to crashes in consecutive races, labeling the situation as 'super-dangerous'. This failure occurred while he was competing for position during the British Grand Prix, following a similar incident in Austria. Verstappen expressed frustration over the car's reliability, having retired from three races this season and currently sitting seventh in the championship standings, significantly behind the leader, Kimi Antonelli.
Red Bull's team principal, Laurent Mekies, acknowledged the challenges posed by the wing failures and emphasized the team's commitment to resolving these issues. Verstappen's contract with Red Bull extends until 2028, but he has performance clauses that could allow him to leave at the end of the current season. His management is reportedly in discussions with other teams, including Mercedes and McLaren, as they consider the best path forward for his career.
