Red Bull team principal Christian Horner thinks that Max Verstappen's crash was his own fault, even though Verstappen himself said it was because the car suddenly had extra power.
Horner is happy with Daniel Ricciardo's performance, and Red Bull's overall pace, but Max Verstappen was a negative note on the weekend so far for the Bulls.
"Unfortunately, Max made a mistake in Q1," Horner told Sky Sports F1.
"It happens, but it's a real shame."
The fact that his team is still considerably behind the other two teams that form the Big Three (Mercedes and Ferrari) doesn't seem to bother Horner.

"Our race pace is good and Ricciardo is looking good out there too.
"The points are earned tomorrow, so anything's possible with Ricciardo."
Horner was somewhat contradicted by both his drivers, as Verstappen said that his crash wasn't his own fault, and Ricciardo isn't happy at all with the pace that Red Bull has at the moment.
