Horner wary of Sprint format catching Red Bull out in remaining rounds
Red Bull has been dominant this season, winning almost all of the races and securing the Constructors’ Championship with six rounds to go. However, their hopes of an undefeated season were dashed in Singapore. The team’s boss, Christian Horner, believes that the new Sprint format could potentially hinder Red Bull’s chances of finishing first in some races. The format will be used in three of the remaining six rounds. Horner points out that last year, Red Bull’s only loss came during a Sprint weekend in Brazil. He admits that it’s difficult to predict which circuits will trouble them this year. Max Verstappen is likely to secure the Drivers’ Championship in the next round, while Sergio Perez aims to recover from a tough weekend in Japan. Despite the setbacks, Horner is confident that Red Bull can achieve a historic first by finishing first and second in the championship.
