Marko doesn't rely on advantage: 'We need to get everything out of our package'

Helmut Marko sees the next two races as extremely important for Red Bull Racing and Max Verstappen. If they win in Mexico and Brazil, they could very well be close to the title.

Red Bull is the favourite heading into the Mexican Grand Prix. Not only does Verstappen have a twelve-point lead in the standings, but at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez Red Bull also won races with a less competitive car. The Austrians are therefore positive.

Winning in Mexico and Brazil

''The next two races in Mexico and Sao Paulo normally suit us better than Mercedes because of the altitude at which they are driven. However, we cannot rely on that. We have to do everything we can to get the maximum out of our package, just like in Austin'', Marko says according to Sport1.de.

Marko is happy to chalk up the two victories. ''If we manage that, then I'm in a good mood. Mercedes can get the car running faster in terms of set-up, for us it takes a bit longer. If Max wins the next two races, we will have taken a huge step towards the title'', concludes Red Bull's advisor.
