The Bahrain GP F1 race became a “nightmare” for Red Bull Racing, when this leading racing team experienced an unexpected collapse right on the opening day of the season. The incident started with seemingly small technical problems but had serious consequences, forcing both team cars to leave the race early.The main cause was determined to be a problem with the fuel system, resulting in the engine being unable to maintain stable power throughout the race. In the case of Max Verstappen, the defending champion, the car had a problem with the fuel pump system, forcing him to stop the car while in a competitive position. For Sergio Pérez, the problem appeared in the final laps, when his engine suddenly stopped working, causing Red Bull to suffer a double defeat.In addition to technical problems, pressure from rivals such as Ferrari and Mercedes also contributed to pushing Red Bull into a difficult situation. Both of these teams took advantage of the opportunity to shine, while Red Bull was unable to quickly overcome its problems.
The defeat in Bahrain was not only a blow to the team’s ambitions for the season but also raised many questions about the reliability of their technical system and strategy. However, with a history of strong recovery, Red Bull is expected to quickly overcome and return to competition in the next races.
