Red Bull team principal Christian Horner says168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Max Verstappen sustained significant floor damage after hitting a bollard in the F1 Miami Grand Prix.

Verstappen appeared in control of the early stages of Sunday’s race in Miami but ꦬthe reigning world champion made a rare error when he skipped over the Turn 15 chicane and wiped out a bollard.

The Dutchman would go on to finish second to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris after the McLaren driver capitalised on a Safety Car period to jump into the lead, before🎃 pulling clear of Verstappen.

Unusually, Verstappen was unable to keep pace with Norris in the finܫal stint and ended up finishing over seven seconds behind.

After the race, Horner revealed Verstappen had picked 🌟up “quite a lot of damage” to the floor of his RB20.

“I don't think we had a great balance 🍃all weekend,” Horner said.

“Obviously, he hit the bollard around lap 20 and that has actually done quite a lot of damage to the underside of the car, so we will have to look at exactly what the effe💝ct of that was.

“It is ꦆa reasonab🌊le amount of the area around the left rear floor. There is a reasonable amount that's missing and you can see it awfully flexing as well, so it certainly wouldn't be helping.”

Horner said Red Bull calculated the damage as costing Verstappen as much as two-and-a-half tenth♏s every lap.

"He lost two andᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤൩⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ a half tenths every lap in turn one," Horner added.

"Now whether that was because of the damage, I think🅷 when you actually see the pictures of what was missing it wasn't designed like that.”

Horner’s claim appeared to contradict Verstappen’s immediate comment💟s after he got out of his car.

“I never really felt comfortable the whole weekend with it,” the three-tꦇime world champion admitted. “I think on the medium it 🐻was still OK-ish, but on the hard it was quite a disaster.

"I mean, just ཧlow grip, just very tricky balance in the low-speed. I couldn't really lean on the rear while in the high-speed I was understeer❀ing a lot.

“So when you have these two issues, you cannot also bal꧋ance it out because you're chasing two different things. So yeah, just driving to the grip that I had and it was not a lot.”

On the bollard 🍬strike and picking up possible damage, Verstappen added: “I decided to take it out and test the durability of the front wing as well.

"So that's a crash test done. Yeah, there was 𒀰no damage. The cone was out of the way for everyone, so it was basically a free-for-all after that.

“It didn't feel different, so I don't know. Maybe it was already damaged. I don't know. I meanꦬ I hit that thing and then my pace was the same so I didn't reaꦅlly know if there was damage.”
