Helmut Marko, Red Bull advisor, says that the team's new front wing has played a major part in their improved pace in recent times.

Max Verstappen qualified second last time out in Austria and despite a poor start, he recovered to win the race, whilst Pierre Gasly put in a great performance to top first practice on Friday for this weekend's British Grand Prix.

Gasly did have a poor weekend in Austria, but it is important to note that he was still running the old front wing at the Red Bull Ring.

According to Auto Motor und Sport, Marko said: "The new front wing brings us better balance.

"The understeer is gone. And so we are better at putting the tyres in the right working window."
