Christian Horner can be satisfied with the start of the season. Both drivers seem to be fighting for the world championship and there is no staunch rival. Red Bull Racing's three biggest rivals are Ferrari, Mercedes and Aston Martin. Ferrari's Italian racing stable showed their plans for this weekend in the first two free practice sessions.

The Red Bull team boss thinks Ferrari could be a potential danger for victory in Miami. "We think Ferrari will be very quick. I think this circuit will suit their energy, particularly in qualifying, for example. I think that this new surface is going to be interesting to see how that plays out in the race," Horner said at the press conference in Miami.

It is not only Ferrari that is Red Bull's rival, because if we take a look at the standings, the Italian team does not come out super well. The standings tell us that Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso can also come out very dangerous. Horner also has something to say about the rest of the competition.

"I think Ferrari obviously looking reasonably quick. Toto's drivers at the end of the session, they're putting in strong times as well. So it's going to be interesting to see how the weekend unfolds," Horner said.
