“Neither the drivers nor the Ferrari and Mercedes cars can cover a race distance with this porpoising “. The phrase said before the Australian Grand Prix by Red Bull adviser Marko would be right in a potential column “Helmut dixit“, Also because the Austrian added important details on the reasons that stopped Max Verstappen in Melbourne. The cause of the Super Max knockout would be the porpoising.
Marko, who had defined the explanation of the withdrawal “very complex“, Went into detail, stating that the hopping”caused a high-pressure tank hose to rupture“, As reported by the Austrian newspaper ORF. “It had erupted, we assume due to porpoising, but now everything is fine, we have it under control even if there are still small hops. Melbourne was a hard blow, and now we are far behind Leclerc. But we reacted quickly. On the engine side, I think it is clear that the problems in Bahrain were completely different from what we had in Australia or in testing. According to Honda, we can expect the engine problems to be fixed by the next race“.
