Christian Horner is confident but maintains 'nothing is done until it’s done.' F1
Although Ferrari began the 2022 season, with its new technical regulations and the return of ground-effect aerodynamics, as the team on top, the tide has turned Red Bull’s way since race four.
Verstappen won the second round of the series in Saudi Arabia but it was Imola where his fortunes really began to pick up and he has now triumphed in nine of the last 12 grands prix. The Dutchman, defending his Drivers’ crown, has built a 109-point advantage over early leader Charles Leclerc, while Red Bull are now 135 points ahead ofHorner, the Red Bull team principal, is generally wary of getting carried away about title prospects – after all, Verstappen had a commanding margin overlast year with four races to go but the duo ended up level going into the Abu Dhabi decider.
But even with seven grands prix of this campaign remaining, Horner has conceded it would need an incredible turnaround to stop both trophies being placed in the Milton Keynes cabinet come the end of November.Verstappen had won his home event, the Dutch Grand Prix“We’d probably have to try quite hard to lose it. But mathematically, nothing is done until it’s done.
“Our approach is as it’s always been, go one race at a time. Next race, next Sunday, same effort. We don’t allow ourselves to think too far ahead.”
