Video: Both F1 title rivals show weakness
Charles Leclerc’s engine failure was a huge blow for Ferrari, but the Spanish Grand Prix weekend also highlighted plenty of areas where Red Bull remains vulnerable – and that neither team can feel particularly comfortable right now
Max Verstappen and Red Bull have plenty to be pleased about after surging into the lead of the Formula 1 world championships with Spanish Grand Prix victory amid a disaster for Charles Leclerc and Ferrari.
After all, it’s only just over a month ago that Verstappen was a massive 46 points behind Leclerc. Just three races later, he’s six ahead.
But while Leclerc’s engine failure at Barcelona is clearly a huge blow for Ferrari, the Spanish GP weekend also highlighted plenty of areas where Red Bull remains vulnerable – and how neither of the title rival teams can feel particularly comfortable right now.
