TECH TALK: Which teams have got faster and cut the gap to Red Bull so far this season?
Red Bull have been the team to beat since the start of F1’s new ground effect era, storming to both world titles in 2022 and picking up where they left off at the start of the current season.
While they have gone on to win all 13 races so far, keeping their unbeaten record intact at a wet and wild Dutch Grand Prix, there are signs that some teams are starting to catch up.
In a special edition of Tech Talk for F1 TV, F1 technical analyst Sam Collins takes a look at the progress, and in some cases regression, teams have shown since lights out in Bahrain to last weekend’s action at Zandvoort.
With a raft of developments being rolled out over the course of the campaign so far, our data shows an improvement of a full second for one team, while others will be scratching their heads after going backwards.
