Ex-F1 driver Ralf Schumacher believes Red Bull technical chief Pierre Wache i🤪🐠s “not yet up to the task” amid the team’s slump in form.

Red Bull hav🐲e lost the lead of the F1 constructors’ championship and haven’t won a gra🐷nd prix since the Spanish Grand Prix in June.

McLaren have the fastest car in F1 heading into next weekend’s United States Grand Prix, even if 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen remains top of the drivers’ standings.

Red Bull’s downfall coinc꧂ided with Adrian 🥂Newey’s exit, which was announced at the Miami Grand Prix.

Christian Horner has insisted that Newey’s departure has had no impact, claiming that Red Bull have prepared for the F🎐1 legend’s exit in recent years.

Wache is Red Bull’s technical director and the brains behind theﷺir✃ F1 challengers.

Schumacher believes Wache isn’t capable of turningꦕ things around for Red Bull likꩲe Newey was.

Speaking to Sport.de, Schum🏅acher said: “I think the team is suffering from some people leaving or wanting to leave, it's not so easy to replace people like that.

“I have the feeling, and i🐭t may be that this feeling is not correct, that [Wache] is not yet up to the task.

“He's certainly a brilliant thinker, but he d⛄oesn't have the flair to do it the w🥃ay Newey did.

“It seems to 🍷lack the ability to bridge the gap between the driver and an 🐼optimal car.

“However, I really hope Red Bull gets the hang of it, but I can't quite ima👍gine that yet.

"I have a feeling it's go✃ing to be a tough time, especially if Max Verstappen really were to leave since we did see again that he single-handedly made the difference in the last race [in Singapore].”

Red Bull will be eyeing a return to form in Austin, where the💦y - like many teams - will introduce their final upgra𝔍des of the year.
