Makes sense, the Red Bull’s strength is in straight line speed. Wouldn’t be surprised if Verstappen still won by overtaking everyone on the straight

Red bull has no where near the advantage they had last year so this is highly unlikely

Especially as everyone knows that they don't have the same advantage. Last year it wouldn't make sense to try and defend a position against Max due to the massive difference in lap times. Currently it might be pretty easy to hold him off.
