Helmut Marko has disputed 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez’s claim that Ferrari would have won the Australian Grand Prix even if 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen didn’t DNF.

Ver✤stappen retired on Lap 4 of the race in Australia due to a 🉐brake problem.

This allowed 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz to take the꧒ first non-Red Bull victory since Singapore, and hand Ferrari thei🃏r first 1-2 since Bahrain 2022.

After the race, Perez, who finished a lacklustre P5, felt that Ferrari were going to win irrespecꦺtive of Verstappen’s issue.

“As a team we just didn’t have the pace today,” the Mexican told Sky Sports F1. “We didn’t 👍have the pꦜace throughout the weekend.

“We were str൲uggling already from Friday and we never got on top of the management of tyres. I think we just have to understand and make sure we are able to improvꦫe.”

He 💃then was asked if he thought Ferrari would have won if Verstappen remained in the race, he replied: “Absolutely, yes.”

“ꩲWith Max in the race, the outcome would have been completely different.”

Marko adm𝓡itted Red Bull is stil﷽l unsure on the exact cause of Verstappen’s terminal brake issue,

“We don’t know exactly yet, but already on the lap when Sainz 𒐪overtook him, the brake didn’t release,” he adde🎉d.

“In addition, he got slightly sideways and Sainz overtook him as a result. As a result, the brake got completely stuck and we are very glad that not everything caught fire. We need to evaluate the exact ꦯcause.”
