Christian Horner has revealed Red Bull is "trying and testing" hoped-for solutions for its balance issues with its car that will stand the team in good stead for the upcoming "flying circuits".

Red Bull has seen its dominance of F1 undermined by an RB20 suffering with a disconnected balance between front and rear. This has resulted in a run of seven grands prix without a victory.

For the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Red Bull made tweaks to its floor, although as Horner conceded, he was unconcerned by how the car would perform around the Baku Street Circuit as it was not a track that would expose its weaknesses.

"For the characteristics of our car, particularly [in Baku] it is all slow, 90-degree corners," said Horner, speaking to media, including RacingNews365. "That hasn't been the Achilles heel of the car.

"So some of the changes that we're making, some of the discoveries we've had, are not that applicable for this circuit. They're more applicable for the likes of Austin, some of the faster-flowing circuits.

"Still valuable lessons that we can learn, and some of the stuff that we're trying and testing will certainly not be unbeneficial for a race like this, but we're expecting it to have a bigger effect at some of the more flying circuits."
