Hadjar's Belgian GP his ‘best race' with Red Bull – Mekies

Red Bull Team Principal Laurent Mekies has lauded Isack Hadjar for an exceptional performance at the Belgian Grand Prix, where the driver fought from P21 on the grid to finish P6. Despite a 30-place grid penalty, Hadjar showcased remarkable pace throughout the race, bolstered by a bold strategy that included an early double pit stop. Mekies highlighted the drive as Hadjar's best for the team, noting a consistent upward trajectory in his performance across recent weekends. While Hadjar’s pace rivaled the top three, Mekies emphasized that Red Bull must continue to refine its approach to energy management on challenging circuits. With the team acknowledging that there is still significant work to be done to maintain such competitiveness consistently, they remain focused on unlocking further performance improvements ahead of upcoming races, including the round in Budapest.
