Horner: “A formidable performance”
Hot reactions from the team principal of Red Bull Racing
Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber delivered a one-two finish for the Red Bull Racing team, strengthening the Red Bull’s position in both championships. It’s therefore satisfaction in the Austrian camp.
« It’s a tremendous performance by the team, by both drivers. The strategy, the pit stops all worked well. It’s a very good day for Red Bull, » said Christian Horner to MotorsInside in the Spa-Francorchamps paddock.
And yet it was not a foregone conclusion, as the Spa circuit was not, on paper, the one that should best suit the RB7 designed by Adrian Newey.
« It’s true that historically this is not the track that suits us best, so winning here is a very good result for Red Bull, and we are thrilled to achieve our first victory at Spa-Francorchamps, » added the Red Bull team principal.
This could deliver a blow to the morale of the competition, which had regained some optimism before the summer break.
