Red Bull have admitted to bringing a wrong rear wing to the F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix afꦆter enduring a drab Friday.

Max 🅷Verstappen was 17th and Sergio Perez 19t🐬h after the first day of practice.

While Red Bull have been known to up the ante ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚas race weekends progress, they have co🍒nceded to making a mistake with an updated part to the RB20.

"We don't have another rear wing, a smaller rear wing, as we see it on our competitors,” Red Bull’s Helmut Marko was qu꧙oted by .

“It would be more helpful, for sure."

Marko confirmed there was no 𒁃possibility of flying out a new, and better-suited, rear wing ove❀rnight ready for Saturday’s qualifying.

He added: "On the short run we didn't go out with a soft tyre, and the long run was only part🌊🌊ly good.

"Some laps were competitive, but then the rꦅear tyres were disappearing.

“There were 🌞flashes of speed. We just ha🅘ve to get consistency into it.

"We need more balance. On the single la�♈�p we can improve. But on the long run, the tyre wear is a problem at the moment."

However﷽, Marko did have a warning for Mercedes and McLaren who were at the top of the timesheet on Friday.

“People will be fastest on Friday or Thursday,🍬 but it doesn't mean that they are fast in the race,” he said.

"We will, for sure, make a reasonable step."

Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton was fastest on Friday, ahead 🌜of McLaren’s Lando Norris.

Red Bull’s Max Vꦫerstappen could wrap up the F💃1 championship in Las Vegas.
