Relentless Red Bulls

Two doubles in as many races, a maddening pace even when reliability is lacking, Red Bull is a hit. On the Jeddah Corniche, the Austrian team has once again disgusted already resigned competition. And proved that she was capable of winning with Sergio Pérez when Max Verstappen was prevented.

What if George Russell was right? In Bahrain, stunned by the crazy pace of Red Bull, the Briton immediately laid down his arms by affirming that Sergio Pérez and Max Verstappen would undoubtedly win all the races of the 2023 season. Even if we remain optimistic, it is difficult to prove him completely wrong after the new beating delivered to the competition by Christian Horner's men in the streets of Jeddah. After Bahrain, Red Bull signed a second consecutive double, a performance that it had not been able to achieve during its four years of unchallenged domination between 2010 and 2013, when the king was called Sebastian Vettel. During his eight seasons of hegemony (2014-2021), Mercedes has only once managed to start a campaign with two doubles. It was 2019…and again, this would never have happened if Charles Leclerc had not been betrayed by its engine Ferrari in Bahrain when he had won the race.
