In Suzuka Red Bull returned to excel by completing the third double in four races, but in the next Chinese GP the biggest threat is called Ferrari
The numbers of Red Bull so far they are eloquent, first place in the rankings of both the drivers' and constructors' World Championships, yet the Milton Keynes team fears the danger Ferrari in the next Chinese GP. The Maranello team has been Red Bull's only direct rival so far and in the last two F1 seasons. The latest victory for the team led by Frederic Vasseur took place a few weeks ago in Australia, on a track that puts the front axle in difficulty. This is where the SF-24 made the difference, leading the Red Army to an unexpected one-two.
Next weekend, more in detail from 19 to 21 April the Circus will close the Asian season with Chinese GP. A track, that of Shanghai which will be yet another test for Red Bull, still not entirely calm seeing a Ferrari buzzing in the mirrors of the RB20.
Chinese GP, Ferrari threatens Red Bull
Red Bull doesn't trust Ferrari, the team principal himself confirms it Christian Horner who stated:
In China it will be a good challenge for us, the first corner is very long so the front could be affected. There will be the first sprint race of the year, so many points available. Curious to see how things will develop. I think we will compete with Ferrari, last weekend already on Friday they were very strong in terms of race pace. We expect them to be our direct competitors.
The fear that most worries the Austrian team is represented dal graining, in this case the Shanghai layout presents a high risk. The team that has so far suffered least from tire wear problems has been Ferrari, as demonstrated by the stint of Charles Leclerc a Suzuka.
