Yuki Tsunoda has recorded several Q1 exits racing for Red Bull. But for Max Verstappen in marked the first time in years that the Dutchman fell away in the first part of qualifying.

Speaking to Sky Germany after the qualifying session for the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, Marko said things had "gone badly wrong."

The 82-year-old Austrian also emphasised that the Milton Keynes-based outfit's car's performance loss was evident throughout the lap, saying: "We have slowed down everywhere, lost time in all sectors. The damage has been done. It doesn't look good."

The team equipped the RB21 with a new floor in Mexico, which they also put on the car in Interlagos. The part in question has "not brought the hoped-for success".

Nevertheless Red Bull simply relied on their ability to "find the right direction. But that was not the case. We have to look at where we have taken a wrong turn."

In the end, Marko revealed Red Bull would hold a meeting prior to the race to discuss measures. "We have to see what we do with this situation," he concluded.

After qualifying in P16 for the Brazilian Grand Prix, Verstappen was quick to discard himself as a championship contender. The Dutchman also stated Red Bull were still at a loss as to what's gone awry during qualifying for the Brazilian Grand Prix.
