Although some believe that the upcoming restriction on advanced engine mapping could finally halt Red Bull’s charge, Karun Chandhok is predicts that the Milton Keynes team could enjoy a second commanding win at their home British Grand Prix.
“The next race in Silverstone could be a serious demonstration of the power of the Red Bull RB7's aerodynamic prowess,” the Team Lotus reserve driver said in a column for ESPN. “The high-speed nature of the circuit rewards downforce and grip and there is nothing else on the grid that comes close to RB7 in that department.
“There's a lot of talk about the change in blown floor mapping and how this is going to affect the car's performance, but I would say anyone who thinks that will slow Red Bull down compared to the opposition is either an optimist or not very clued in!
“Yes, the RB7 will lose performance but then so will everyone else and, while the blown floor mapping does have a big effect on the car's performance, it isn't the only reason why the Ferraris, McLarens and Mercedes haven't been a match for the Red Bulls.”
