After the Spanish Grand Prix, pride was on Christian Horner's face. And not without reason: Max Verstappen took the victory in very dominant fashion. The Red Bull Racing team boss realises that life is very good for his team at the moment.

Ahead of the race, it was widely predicted that tyres would play a key role in the race. This was also noticed by Verstappen, who complained about his tyres several times during the race. "That could have been quite a handful for him today," Horner explained to Viaplay.

"But he dealt with it beautifully. The start was crucial, he was the only one on the medium so he was firm but fair in the first corner and then just built a gap and ran his race," the Red Bull team boss added.

"Great work in the pit stops today. You have to enjoy the good days, today was a good day. We've had a lot of them recently. you have to remember them on the bad days, and I'm sure there will be in the future. The team have been outstanding" said a proud Horner.
