Silverstone ‘key’ for judging Red Bull

Red Bull Racing's true advantage over the rest of the field will become clear at this weekend's British Grand Prix, reckons Mercedes team principal Ross Brawn, - amid concerns from the champion team's rivals that its performance in Valencia is a sign that it could now be clear at the front of the field. Sebastian Vettel dominated the European GP weekend before retiring with an alternator failure – and the ease with which he controlled the event has left some worried that the German could be about to return to a period of dominance now t But Brawn wants to see how the Red Bull cars perform at Silverstone, because he thinks some of its Valencia advantage could have been down to exploiting tyres rather than outright aerodynamic performances. "It was certainly a very impressive performance by Vettel in the last grand prix in Valencia," said Brawn during a FOTA Fans' Forum event at Williams on Tuesday night
