    They aren’t even comparing to Max though. The only Red Bull mention in the article is saying they were fast enough to keep Checo behind over the duration of the race.

    It has been a pretty great turnaround, but they still have a lot of work to go. I think their car is still slightly behind Aston on general race pace, but they are mostly ahead of Ferrari and competitive with Alonso.

      Well the case with checo was not like the case with albon where they held checo by the skin of their teeth. Checo was genuinely the slowest of the top 6

      Edit - What I mean to say is that they did not hold back a charging checo by just having enough pace to pip him, they were genuinely faster than him (as were the ferraris and Alonso).
