They aren’t even comparing to Max though. The only Red Bull mention in the article is saying they were fast enough to keep Checo behind over the duration of the race.
It has been a pretty great turnaround, but they still have a lot of work to go. I think their car is still slightly behind Aston on general race pace, but they are mostly ahead of Ferrari and competitive with Alonso.
Well the case with checo was not like the case with albon where they held checo by the skin of their teeth. Checo was genuinely the slowest of the top 6
Edit - What I mean to say is that they did not hold back a charging checo by just having enough pace to pip him, they were genuinely faster than him (as were the ferraris and Alonso).
That’s three races in a row with improvement. Are they going to bear Red Bull? No. But I have a feeling they will beat Aston for P2 by end of season (aren’t they already now?).
Max has one race where he finishes with a bird in his brake duct and now teams think they’re catching up to red bull.
Idk, maybe they are but I’m not getting my hopes up yet
