Red Bull suffered two gearbox problems in Canada on Sunday.<\/p>\n
With McLaren now leading both the drivers’ and constructors’ championships with victory at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, it has emerged that Sebastian Vettel struggled to the chequered flag with a gearbox problem.<\/p>\n
His Red Bull teammate Mark Webber, who finished behind Vettel in fifth place, earlier lost his front row starting place due to an unscheduled gearbox change penalty.<\/p>\n
In the wake of recent suggestions the Milton Keynes-based team will walk the 2010 season with a superior car, the Canadian result – featuring a McLaren one-two – could be a turning point.<\/p>\n
“I had a gearbox problem from around halfway through the race, which meant I had to slow down,” German Vettel said.<\/p>\n
However, race winner and new championship leader Lewis Hamilton has acknowledged that despite the Montreal result, the RB6 is still the superior car on more conventional circuits.<\/p>\n
“There is no reason to panic from our side,” Vettel confirmed, “we have a very good car and we’re looking ahead to Valencia.”<\/p>\n
