Red Bull still behind – now Marko is hoping for rain
Red Bull was unable to keep up with the fastest drivers at the start in Melbourne, with world champion Max Verstappen finishing fifth and seventh in the first two practice sessions. Now Helmut Marko is hoping for rain in Australia.
The Red Bull advisor said in an interview with Sky that Verstappen will probably not be fighting for pole position on Saturday (6 a.m./live in the sportkrone.at ticker).
"The first practice session was better," said the Styrian. "It seems that McLaren is the strongest team, and then it will be tight between Ferrari, Mercedes and us."
"Max factor"
However, Marko expressed his hope for rain, which would once again bring the "Max factor" into play. Rain is indeed in the forecast for Sunday, but before that it is set to get extremely hot on the south-east coast of Australia on Saturday.
