Dr. Helmut Marko is the advisor for the Red Bull team. He has seen the Austrian-based outfit in its dominant years when they had a certain Sebastian Vettel behind the wheel. The team won four championships from 2010 to 2013. However, Marko feels that the constant rule changes are done to slow them down.
In the opening round in Bahrain for the 2021 season, the Milton-Keynes-based outfit were favorites to win, as Verstappen had a spectacular time and got a pole position. However, Mercedes’s Hamilton defended his first place position and brought home the win.
The next round takes the F1 grid to Imola for the Italian Grand Prix. The Austrian team hopes they have a better result in Italy can fight for the championship in 2021.

In an interview with Motorsport-total.com as quoted by PlanetF1. Marko said, “We always interpreted them in such a way that they were against us. The reason was that they wanted to reduce the speed.”
He added, “The biggest argument came from Pirelli, where the tyre pressure were not allowed to be too high. That it has less effect on us is a prejudice and cannot be proved.”
