Lewis Hamilton and George Russell agree that it will be very difficult for anyone to compete with Red Bull again this weekend.
Max Verstappen strolled to victory in the season-opening race in Bahrain, with Sergio Perez comfortably coming home second. Track conditions in Jeddah this weekend should be more favourable for their rivals, but still the performance gap is expected to still be significant.
Russell has Verstappen and Perez finishing first and second again – though he is optimistic about his team's chances of making it to the podium with them. "The track is very different and the tarmac is really different which has a much bigger effect than some people may think," he said.
