F1: Silverstone Will Be 'A Strong Race' for Ferrari, Predicts Red Bull Team Principal

News 18  

Red Bull Team Principal Christian Horner believes that title rivals Ferrari will have the advantage at next weekend’s British Grand Prix, but says his team are “fired up” to win at Silverstone, after losing out on victory last year. Red Bull currently sit at the top of the constructors’ championship – having won seven out of the opening nine races of the season – and now lead second-placed Ferrari by 76 points. It’s going to be an interesting one.” Horner and his Red Bull team have been in this position before, as they went into the British GP last year with a 44-point gap at the top of the constructors’ championship to Mercedes, which was cut to just six points after the race – a first-lap crash between then title rivals Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen taking the Red Bull driver out of the race, as Hamilton went on to win. And Horner, whose team have won the last six races in a row, said it was crucial for Red Bull to continue their momentum this year, while he made no bones about wanting to avenge the result from 2021 – Red Bull now looking for their first win at Silverstone since 2012.
