Horner retains oversight for Red Bull: 'Road is still very long'

Max Verstappen had to deal with a crash in the Australian Grand Prix for the second time this season. It caused a lot of chagrin on Max Verstappen's face after the race, but Christian Horner is still positive.

The Red Bull Racing team boss will undoubtedly not be satisfied with the problems the racing stable faced at the beginning of the season. Internally, Horner will therefore push for rapid improvements to the car. For the longer term, however, Horner expects the Austrians to come back strong.

Horner has concluded from the races that Red Bull has a fast car. He knows that the team still has plenty of time to fight back. "We have just over ten percent of the season behind us now, so the road is still very long. The encouraging thing for us is that we basically have a fast car," Horner said in a conversation with Speedweek.com.

The Austrian formation worked hard in recent days to find the problem in the car. According to Helmut Marko, Red Bull now knows the reason for Verstappen's failure and is looking for a solution. In a week and a half the next GP is scheduled to take place in Imola.
