Red Bull Racing also brings an update this weekend. The Austrian formation is screwing a new front wing onto the car in Italy, which should improve the stability of the car.
Red Bull Racing is known for developing considerably during the season. The employer of Max Verstappen in Alexander Albon therefore regularly have a new part screwed on the car. However, this fast pace of development has also proved to be a pain point for Red Bull Racing in the opening phase of this season. The racing stable developed various updates during the winter months, but were unable to test them due to the corona virus. As a result, the results of the wind tunnel were blindly taken into account, but where these seemed promising on paper, the results on the asphalt were disappointing.

In particular, the stability of the RB16 fell considerably short, which meant that Verstappen and Albon had great difficulty with their idiosyncratic carriage. However, Red Bull Racing has since worked hard to solve the problems and seems to have found the right track again. Also this weekend a new part will be driven. During the race weekend in Italy, a new front wing will be put on the car.
According to Helmut Marko, this should benefit the instability of the car, but also reduce the gap between Verstappen and Albon: “We are taking a new front wing to Monza,” quotes GPToday. “I expect that Alex will do better and make progress, in order to get closer to Max.” The difference in speed between the two men has been considerable so far, because the Dutchman is easier to get around the problems of his car than his teammate.
