Red Bull Racing are really taking the challenge to Mercedes in 2021. In Austria, the team didn't get anywhere near Max Verstappen, which Toto Wolff is not happy about.
In FP3 Lewis Hamilton was the fastest and that gave Mercedes some hope for qualifying. Also in the first sessions it looked good for the team, but in Q3 Max Verstappen showed that he is the fastest man. Toto Wolff was therefore not satisfied with the result
"It was a disappointing qualifying. We had more pace in it, but we weren't able to [unlock] it in Q3," the team boss told the Ziggo Sport camera.
What kind of weather will we have on Sunday?
Despite the poor outlook when it comes to pure speed, Wolff doesn't count his drivers out of the race just yet. After all, anything can happen on Sunday and especially if it rains, exactly what is predicted for tomorrow. "We are looking forward to tomorrow, hope for a little bit of thunderstorm and than summer weather like this. Then everyone will have some fun," concluded the Austrian with a smile.
