In one season, an F1 team can twice choose to work on the car outside curfew. Red Bull Racing has chosen to use one of those two 'jokers' at the Hungaroring. In the night from Friday to Saturday the team continued to work on the RB16. 

The team was present on the circuit between 01:00 and 09:00, let the statement of the F1 and the FIA know. Max Verstappen already complained about the balance in his car during the first free practice session and after the free practice sessions he said he wasn't completely happy with his setup. It is not clear on which car most work was done, but probably there were a lot of things that needed to be adjusted.

No penalty involved

So the team can only choose to work through the night one more time next season. Because it's the first time this season, there is no penalty involved.
