Red Bull: Norris F1 Brazil GP battle was a “cat and mouse” game
Red Bull team principal Christian Horner explained that the Brazilian Grand Prix was not an easy race for Max Verstappen, despite his dominant victory. Horner revealed that the team had conflicting requests for Verstappen, asking him to conserve his tires while also pulling out a gap. Verstappen handled these demands well, managing to maintain his lead and extend it after the pitstop. Horner acknowledged McLaren as Red Bull’s closest competitor in recent races, but stated that their focus remains on themselves rather than who is behind them. Verstappen agreed with Horner, emphasizing that although it may have appeared easy from the outside, he had to constantly focus and avoid mistakes.
