This unreliability also ended up touching theAlpha Tauri from Pierre Gasly, equipped with the same engine. It is therefore 3 out of 4 cars powered by Red Bull that do not reach the finish of the Bahrain Grand Prix. The problem is therefore general and worrying, while the engines are frozen because of the new regulations 2022.
For the moment, none of the team leaders has wished to make any statement on the subject. The problem is not yet targeted according to them, we will have to wait and see next weekend, in Saudi Arabia from March 25 to 27.
