Huge problems at Red Bull Racing! The trophy cabinet has become full. The Austrian racing stable is thus forced to order a new cabinet to store the captured honour metal, Christian Horner informs ESPN.

After four world titles in a row for Sebastian Vettel between 2010 and 2013, the Milton Keynes-based team is currently enjoying another highly successful run. Max Verstappen is currently a 47-time race winner and well on his way to his third world title in a row. Teammate Sergio Perez also regularly finishes on the podium and so the trophy cabinet is overflowing at the team. Red Bull needs a new cabinet soon:"Yes, that's true," says Horner. "It's a nice problem to have!," laughs the Briton.

According to Horner, it is tradition that the team only buys a new trophy cabinet when there is no space left. "I'm superstitious and I don't like empty cabinets. We've already ordered another cabinet and we've already filled it. So we'll deal with that at the end of the season," the successful team boss concluded with a smile.
