Follow usHelmut Marco followed Red Bull team boss Christian Horner to promise that the two Red Bull drivers Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez, will be left by the team to fight freely for the world title. This topic has become relevant again after Perez’s victory in Baku on Sunday, which saw him close to within 6 points of leader Verstappen, and the upcoming street races promise more strong performances from the Mexican.
“First of all, our drivers and Red Bull are in a great position, as we are the leaders this season, with a big lead at the same time,” stated Dr. Marko with satisfaction to the Austrian television channel ORF. – It also helped us that Fernando Alonso, Charles Leclerc and the Mercedes drivers are fighting for the third place, as it happened in Baku. The distribution of forces in this group is constantly changing, and this works in favor of our advance.”
“We still have 19 races to go this season, so we’re not thinking about orders from the pits – the former driver was emphatic. – We are carefully monitoring the situation. We have two excellent drivers, each of them has his strengths – Sergio is good on street tracks, Verstappen – on classic tracks. We are watching how the season develops. And our goal has not changed: first and second place in the final ranking.”
