Red Bull had to change MAX's HONDA PU . It's a PU from the pool to avoid a grid penalty.

Sounds not good (!)

Indeed, a grid penalty for Max now could cost him the WDC...

One wonders what's happening at Haas...
now 2 cars currently in the top 10...
I liked Steiner as a crazy blunt teamboss, but since Komatsu leads the team, the progress has been stunning over there.
