Christian Horner is proud of his team’s achievements and journey this season
According to Christian Horner, they did not expect to come this season and fight Mercedes so closely. The Red Bull Team CEO praised the championship, his team’s journey through the 2021 F1 season and felt proud of what they had achieved.
Explaining the team's overall feelings, Horner said:
“Who would have thought coming into this season that we’d be here? Been an outside shot preparing for this trophy but to be tied on points with Lewis? It feels a bit like Squid Games where we finished our year on equal points. But I think it's going to make a compelling duel on Sunday, and just as a team, we are incredibly proud of what we have done this year.”
While the constructors' championship has Mercedes leading the Red Bull F1 team by 25 points, the drivers' championship has Max Verstappen tied with Lewis Hamilton on equal points. In terms of the number of victories this season, however, the Dutchman and Red Bull F1 lead the chart.
