Verstappen Surprises in Vegas Amid Red Bull Wing Controversy

TL;DR
Max Verstappen criticizes Red Bull's decision not to develop a low-drag rear wing, which he believes costs the team performance at high-speed circuits like the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Verstappen qualified fifth, citing both straight-line speed and cornering as areas of deficit due to the current wing design. He acknowledges the budget cap as a factor in prioritizing developments but feels the team is sacrificing two race weekends per season. Teammate Sergio Perez also struggles with car performance, impacting his ability to compete effectively.
