Summary
Red Bull’s top engine ranking in FIA’s new ADUO system has left Max Verstappen stunned — and slightly confused — as the team gets the fewest upgrades despite being labeled the strongest. While the system aims to help underperforming teams catch up, Red Bull’s surprise win puts them in a bind, with rivals like Mercedes, Ferrari, Audi, and Honda all getting more upgrade opportunities. Verstappen credits the team’s hard work but admits the ranking doesn’t align with their perception — a situation that could impact their 2026 race strategy.
