Why the latest updates can no longer help Verstappen and Red Bull:

— Red Bull Racing is introducing a final package of updates to help Max Verstappen in the world title race. However, Verstappen remains skeptical about their impact, acknowledging the strength of McLaren's Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris.

— Helmut Marko's comments to the Austrian press about not giving up on the title seem more for show, as catching up with McLaren appears nearly impossible. Red Bull needs a miracle, including a McLaren collapse and a breakthrough with the RB21.

— The updates focus on the car's bodywork, not the floor. Spa-Francorchamps might offer a chance for Red Bull to challenge McLaren, given its fast corners. However, optimizing the setup in one free practice session remains a chronic issue.

— Hungary presents a tougher challenge for Red Bull. The Hungaroring's narrow, slow corners and potential summer heat are unfavorable for the RB21. A complete change in car philosophy is needed, but Red Bull is unlikely to pursue it.

— Red Bull aims for damage limitation in Hungary, while hoping everything aligns in Belgium. Marko mentioned that the title's fate will be clearer after these races, but a return to championship contention for Verstappen seems unlikely.
