Red Bull – a team operating at the peak of its powers in 2023 – took its 13th consecutive victory at the Belgium GP courtesy of Max Verstappen while the ongoing battle for second-best continued
The Red Bull's pace advantage at Spa was big even by its own 2023 standards. The circuit – with its long straights but fast corners – demands aero efficiency above all else and that is where the RB19's really devastating strength lies. The circuit also rewards the sort of driver who can live with a fast corner neutral balance through the middle sector and so be rewarded with a great positive turn in response into the slow Bus Stop and La Source corners.
That's perfect Max Verstappen territory. Just as last year, his advantage was extreme and a five-place gearbox change grid penalty was just the mildest of inconvenience on his way to victory number 10 of 12, Red Bull's 13th in succession.
