Worse than that for Hamilton, it emerged over the weekend that Mercedes have basically stopped developing their car, and Red Bull very much have not. As for the car, in the last two races, Red Bull have been using a smaller rear wing than Mercedes. While Red Bull continue to bring new parts to their car, Mercedes have more or less stopped. If Mercedes are already focusing on their 2022 design, having decided that to work on this year’s car would compromise next year too much, what does that say about the way Red Bull are balancing the two seasons?.
