Red Bull Racing had a tough weekend at the Austrian Grand Prix with downtime for Max Verstappen and Alexander Albon. During the Steiermark Grand Prix this problem should be solved.

"We've found the defect in Max his cas and we're assuming the problem with Alex is similar. The problems were caused by the vibrations of the kerbstones. Part of the solution is to stay away from the kerbs, but that's not feasible in every situation'', says Helmut Marko to ORF.

''We have therefore also strengthened some parts, so that there is more stability and the car's handling also improves. Luckily it's dry today and I hope we'll find our balance again in this weather. Whether we'll drive tomorrow is still uncertain, but this weekend we're in better shape for qualifying'', Marko concludes.

Red Bull wasn't the only team plagued by vibration problems. Mercedes also had to drive much quieter to finish the race. Mercedes had problems with the gearbox, where Verstappen and Albon really couldn't go any further. Hopefully that problem is now solved.
