Red Bull: Verstappen Car Issue Cannot Be Fixed Until 2027

Red Bull Racing has acknowledged that recurring car handling issues affecting Max Verstappen cannot be completely resolved until the 2027 season. Verstappen has regularly reported that the car's rear axle performance deteriorates over the course of sessions and race distances, describing the car's fragility at Monza earlier this month. Team Principal Laurent Mekies stated that while incremental lessons and short-term mitigations are being introduced, fully engineering out the underlying problem will take until 2027.
