Isack Hadjar’s first laps with Red Bull’s in-house engine trigger alarm, then admiration. Early Barcelona running leaves him fearing a long season, but performance gains soon change the outlook.
That turnaround aligns with Red Bull’s Malaysia win, the first 2026 victory for Red Bull Ford Powertrains. The FIA rates the team’s internal combustion engine best, despite a missed development token.
Max Verstappen maintains measured expectations pre-season, yet credits investment and execution for a robust start. He highlights the team’s facility growth and depth across power unit and chassis groups.
