Realism has set in at Red Bull Racing: only with a miracle will the Austrian team give Max Verstappen the chance to fight for the world title this season. Because honestly, there's really no one who believes in that.

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner says Max Verstappen is free to let off steam in other motorsport series, but reaffirmed that the Dutchman’s “focus has to be” on Formula 1 following a secret test at the Nurburgring last week.

Aston Martin has registered seven changes to its AMR25 as it hopes to turn around a poor start to the year, with new floor body, edge, and diffuser components in an effort to extract more downforce from the underbody. As a result, the bodywork has also been reformed to suit the new floor.
