Red Bull Racing have built a monster of a car in 2023. The team have won all three races so far as well as scoring all pole positions. The car is not only fast but also reacts well to setup changes.
In qualifying in Bahrain, Ferrari were still competing for pole position, but in the race one day later, Red Bull's dominance became clear. Verstappen won the race overwhelmingly, eventually finishing almost 39 seconds ahead of the first non-Red Bull car.
RB19 is sublime
The RB19 does not seem to have any weaknesses, and Aston Martin has expressed concern about this. Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez's car has a huge top speed, especially with DRS opened. In addition, Red Bull also seems to have an advantage in terms of tyre wear compared to the rest of the field.
"The GPS data reveals the strength of the RB19, but also its changeable behaviour. It responds to set-up changes to be quick through the corners at one venue before being fettled to set the standard in a straight line. It seems to enjoy wide operating window," Autosport writes.
