F1 | Red Bull, Horner on Albon: "He was good, but we'll decide everything after Abu Dhabi"

For Alex Albon, third in Bahrain and on his second career podium (the other one achieved at Mugello), the doors for reconfirmation in Red Bull are not at all closed. After the Sakhir race, Chris Horner, team principal of the Anglo-Austrian team, spoke about the situation relating to the second driver, proving satisfied with Albon's podium and explaining that the team decided to take more time to evaluate the situation, still giving the opportunity for the Thai driver to do well and keep his place alongside Verstappen.

“Alex certainly took advantage of what happened to Perez, but his race remains very positive, considering that he recovered very well after Friday's accident - Horner declared as reported in Autosport -  He qualified fourth and was there ready to take advantage of the opportunity. We have decided not to make any decisions until the end of the season, we want him to run free giving him every opportunity to do well and hoping he is successful. Races like these certainly help him, let's see the next two.".
