Alexander Albon's impressive performance at the Belgian Grand Prix has been hailed by Red Bull Racing chief Christian Horner. Albon was promoted from Toro Rosso in August, replacing Pierre Gasly as Red Bull's second-seat driver behind Max Verstappen for the remainder of the season. His maiden race for Red Bull came at Spa on Sunday, where Albon showed plenty of grit as he overcame a grid penalty to cruise from 17th to a fifth-place finish.
