Wache concedes Red Bull 'not quick enough' as simulator failed to predict Madring challenges

What happened

Red Bull technical director Pierre Wache has admitted the team is 'not quick enough yet' after Friday practice at the Madring, revealing that the new Madrid circuit proved more challenging than the team's simulator work had predicted in several key areas. Verstappen finished fifth in FP1 and sixth in FP2, four tenths behind pacesetter Kimi Antonelli, while Liam Lawson finished both sessions in tenth.
