Horner: 'Austin was the most special moment of the year'

This weekend, the Red Bull heroes can be seen in their hometown of Milton Keynes under the guise of the Milton Keynes Home Run. This demo run will see Max Verstappen, Sergio Perez, and other drivers racing through the city's cramped streets and turning a few donuts here and there. Team boss Christian Horner is also in attendance.

In front of the camera of Viaplay Horner responded when asked what he thought was the most special moment of the year: “Winning the constructors in Austin, despite the sad passing of Mateschitz the day before. To bring the Constructors Championship is something that he would be incredibly proud of. A special moment for the whole team."

Focusing on the future

The Englishman can still reminisce about the extremely successful year Red Bull has just finished, but he is also already focused on the future. "It already starts, very busy and focused on next year. Trying to keep the momentum going. [Our opponents] won’t be sleeping, they’ll be pretty motivated after the season we had. We have to keep pushing and trying to find more speed and performance."

For now, he says everyone can enjoy Christmas and the next few weeks for a while. But after that it's "straight back into the New Year." So, things are looking optimistic for Red Bull - provided the whole team works as hard for it as they have in recent years.
