It has been revealed that Honda had to fit a new engine to Max Verstappen's Red Bull after the car had issues with an oil leak during FP1. The team has said that they are not too worried about the issue but hope that the replacement has fixed the issue and will start investigating what caused the leak.

"We've now changed the power unit on Max's car following the oil leak that occurred during FP1," said Honda F1 boss Toyoharu Tanabe to GPToday.net.
