Fans of Formula One have been debating why McLaren has been so dominant this season, but a new report claims Red Bull figured it out and approached FIA about it. The fact that Max Verstappen then went on to win last weekend after changes were instituted by the governing body only adds fuel to the fire of these accusations.

Red Bull have reportedly been ‘bombarding’ the FIA as the McLaren tyre saga begins to heat up. The British constructor had been accused of illegally using liquid to cool their tyres.

Max Verstappen’s victory at Imola was welcome for the neutral enthusiast, rekindling a three-way fight for the championship and ending McLaren’s run of victories. It was also a more significant win for Red Bull than his previous triumph at Suzuka.
