F1 | Red Bull, Christian Horner: “The road to the first corner is long”

Another pole position for Max Verstappen, the seventh for Red Bull this season, which saw them triumph in both championships, but also succumb to public opinion, with the media trial first and then the sanctions, regarding the budget Postal Code. However, it is the track that speaks in Mexico, but also the fans, who are wild for Sergio Perez. Checo had an electrical problem, which left him without the information that is vital for a driver: he still managed to grab the second row. Verstappen, on the other hand, seemed to be missing something too, but at the right moment the two-time world champion pulled off the perfect lap, going under 1.17s. Another pole for him, who will have to keep a cool head to defend himself, this time, from the attack of the two silver arrows.

"After some incredibly tight sessions, Max had an incredible lap. It was the only car to go below 1.17s and it took pole position with more than 3 tenths of an advantage, incredible – said team principal Christian Horner immediately – the top positions are really within a few tenths, we expect an exciting race. The road to the first corner is really long, the riders behind will have several opportunities. The fans will play a big role, without a doubt, especially for Checo, they have been fantastic so far and he will start from the second row. We'll see what happens tomorrow".
