Red Bull advisor, Helmut Marko has claimed that the team has identified an issue with the RB20 that they look to resolve during the Spanish GP. The Milton-Keynes-based team has seen a decline in its pace as compared to its competitors in the past few races.

Helmut Marko has been in praise of Ferrari and has pitted them to be on top of the charts at this week’s Canadian GP. The 81-year-old also said previously that Red Bull has a much better chance of performing well in Montreal in comparison to Monaco.

The Austrian outfit has talked of bringing new upgrades to Barcelona with which they seek to resolve a key issue within the car. Helmut Marko has also said that this week’s race in Montreal could benefit the team with the likely prospect of changing weather conditions and imminent perspiration.

We have a problem, we have now finally noticed it. We will see when we find a solution. New parts will not be installed on the car until Barcelona.

Max Verstappen and Co. will look to hit the ground running at the Canadian GP as they seek to get back to winning ways after an underwhelming performance in Monaco. The Milton-Keynes outfit will have to battle with the likes of Ferrari and McLaren who have been in phenomenal form in recent races.

Max Verstappen claims Red Bull kerb issues are not a quick fix

The 26-year-old Dutchman has shared his thoughts on the issues with the RB20. Red Bull has struggled this season on circuits that are of bumpy nature and require kerb riding in order to chart up good lap times.

It's you have to redesign things, you have to come up with different things on the car and that is a work in progress. It's been a problem since day one of the new regulations, and this is something that we know and we haven't been able to fix it yet.

Max Verstappen won the first three races of this season in a dominating fashion, with little to no issues. But as the season progressed, Red Bull started facing issues around circuits that have few high-speed straights and low-speed braking corners, an issue that has been a major hindrance for the team ever since the start of the 2022 season.

Red Bull will hence try their best to minimize the issues of the RB20 in time for the Canadian GP which is crucial for them to maintain their lead in the title race. Verstappen who has been a winner in Montreal on previous occasions, will seek to apply his knowledge of the track in an attempt to make a return to the podium on Sunday.
