As a team that suffered relatively little from the quik problem, it was unpleasant news for Red Bull that the teams were given help to solve it.
Max Verstappen, Christian Horner and Helmut Marko criticized the decision in the media. The fact that the relaxation of the rules comes into effect later is a good sign, according to team advisor Marko.
With the 3.1 percent increase in the budget ceiling, which frees up about four million extra for teams this year, it was also decided to postpone the rule changes from the French GP to the Belgian GP.
Marko says in a conversation with Austrian website Laola1.at that "it's still too early. So it's a small victory for Red Bull that the directive is being postponed, but the team still doesn't seem to agree with the FIA's decision.
