Horner not satisfied yet: 'Need to keep the momentum going'

Red Bull and Max Verstappen are currently unstoppable. Verstappen is firmly on top of the world championship standings, while the same can be said of Red Bull in the constructors' division.

Speaking to Speedweek.com Christian Horner can't deny that things are going well at the moment, yt he also remains calm. "Five wins in a row, that's a first for us in the turbo hybrid era since early 2014. But we can't afford to be satisfied for even a moment. We need to keep the momentum going, even at the home race at Silverstone.

"We are aware that we still have a long way to go to win the world championship. We don't take anything for granted. We just have to keep doing what we are doing at the moment, because it is clear that we are doing a lot of things right at the moment."

Horner expects strong Mercedes at Silverstone

The question of course, knowing that Mercedes are coming to Silverstone with updates, is how Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes are going to react to the triple header that has gone dramatically against them. Horner thinks Mercedes will come out strong again at Silverstone.

"We expect a very strong performance from Mercedes at Silverstone and most fans will be cheering for Lewis. At the same time we have sprint qualifying for the first time and nobody knows what effect this will have on the balance of power. We go to Silverstone without fear, but with humility and respect."

In a week and a half, the battle between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen will resume. Red Bull and Mercedes will also battle it out again for the constructors' championship.
