Max Verstappen has expressed frustration with Red Bull's performance during the Italian Grand Prix, where he finished sixth due to significant balance issues with the RB20 car and an ineffective two-stop strategy. He criticized the team's communication, stating he shouldn't have to ask when to return to quicker settings on the car. Verstappen warned that if the car's problems aren't addressed, the situation could worsen for the remainder of the season. Additionally, he noted a drastic drop in performance during qualifying, marking his worst result in 32 races. Team principal Christian Horner acknowledged that internal conflicts have affected the team's competitiveness, allowing rivals like McLaren to close the gap. Verstappen emphasized that while the team listens to his concerns, they are struggling to identify effective solutions for the car's issues.
