Red Bull managed to pick up the pieces during the Chinese Grand Prix. Max Verstappen managed to undercut a Ferrari, while Pierre Gasly grabbed the fastest lap point from Sebastian Vettel. 

Chrisitan Horner was pleased with his team efforts, even though it's clear they can't fight for the race win yet. Daniel Ricciardo won this event last year by stealing it with sublime overtakes, but it was a different kind of steal this year. 

"We managed to nick a place and finish ahead of the Ferrari, strategy got us that extra position ahead of Charles Leclerc," Horner told Sky Sports. 

"It was also good to nick the fastest lap off Ferrari with Pierre, points mean prizes and at the end of the year they all add up. 

"The chassis has made a good step forward, Honda makes progress on the straights, we were weaker in sector three, but there's stuff in the pipeline to help us with that in the future."
