    Verstappen himself said the car didn’t feel any different after he hit the bollard.

    Sure, maybe it damaged something. Or maybe he picked up damage from something else, debris or whatever. But it’s also clear that Red Bull didn’t get the setup right in Miami and that McLaren had serious pace.

      Imola is going to clear all this away. No sprint setup excuses, a normal race weekend. We will see if the challenge from McLaren is real (please be real) or not.
