Ralf Schumacher has criticized Red Bull Racing's team principal Christian Horner, attributing the team's recent decline in performance to leadership issues and unrest within the team. He suggested that Horner's management style has become less effective and that the internal investigation into allegations against him earlier this year may have contributed to team dissatisfaction. Meanwhile, Horner acknowledged that Red Bull's car handling problems trace back to a floor upgrade mistake made during the 2023 Spanish Grand Prix, which has led to ongoing struggles in car performance. Following McLaren's recent victory in Baku, Red Bull now trails by 20 points in the constructors' standings, marking a significant shift as they lose their dominant position. Despite these setbacks, Max Verstappen remains optimistic about the team's potential to improve and compete for victories in the future. The combination of on-track issues and off-track controversies has raised questions about the team's stability and effectiveness moving forward.
