In the last free practice of the 2020 season Max Verstappen managed to finish at the top with teammate Alexander Albon in second position. According to team boss Christian Horner, the team knew for a while that they could go even faster on Saturday than on Friday.

Verstappen was very quick during the third free practice in Abu Dhabi. From the very first moment he was at the top of the timesheet and didn't give it away. He was even half a second faster than the man in second position, his teammate Albon.

Red Bull found more speed

"We have seen that Mercedes is the fastest and that we are right behind it, but the team has made changes to the car's balance at night," Horner says to Sky Sports F1.

"We feel that there is more in the car, also because a number of times were taken away from Max yesterday," concludes Horner. Verstappen hasn't taken pole position yet in 2020 and hopes to change that in the last race of the season.
