Jeddah Grand Prix will be the penultimate race of the season with lots at stake, especially for top teams. However, this track was in talks when Red Bull boss Christian Horner commented on the Mercedes rear suspension, which was a hot point of debate after the Turkish GP. Horner believes that it can have a powerful effect in somewhere like Jeddah.

“It’s something that has been used historically and we have seen it with them in the past but obviously, what we have seen in Turkey was quite an extreme version of it which that circuit seemed to allow.”, commented Horner. “It was a reduced effect in the US. Somewhere like Jeddah, it could be quite powerful,” said Horner after the United States Grand Prix.
