Where Ferrari seems to have found its way in the right direction, Red Bull Racing is very disappointing in Hungary. The Italian team managed to recover somewhat by putting the cars in fifth and sixth place, while Red Bull underperformed enormously with seventh and thirteenth place. The difference between Ferrari and Red Bull did not go unnoticed.
Corriere Della Sera was very critical of Red Bull and Honda. "Red Bull was a disaster. While the Scuderia managed to recover on Saturday, came the downfall of Red Bull". So while Ferrari performed better, Red Bull was never at the forefront of the field. That's remarkable, because in the preseason very big words came out of the Red Bull camp.
Honda also zero progression
"In the winter there was a lot of talk about the season, but now it looks very gloomy for the team. The development of Honda also seems to be zero, despite the progress they would have made in lockdown". Not only Corriere della Sera was negative about Red Bull's performance, also Gazzetta dello Sport was not satisfied with Red Bull.
"(Max) Verstappen had to drive on Saturday with a car that was slower than last year on the same circuit. On Sunday he had to drive all-or-nothing to make something of the weekend. He'll have to take risks, so he'll also have to make sure he doesn't cause any accidents", Gazzetta dello Sport said.
