Max Verstappen has been world champion for two weeks now, but
Christian Horner is still enjoying the last race in Abu Dhabi. The team boss saw how the Dutchman drove past
Lewis Hamilton on the last lap and took the world championship.
It was the first time since 2013 that
Red Bull Racing won a world championship. Eight years ago,
Sebastian Vettel was the best driver in the series but for many years Mercedes dominated the race. That changed last season. According to the team boss, a race year like 2021 is rare, he told
Thesportsrush.com.
"I don’t think even a Hollywood scriptwriter could have come up with the ins and outs of this year," Horner stated, noting that
Formula 1 boss
Stefano Domenicali should be happy with the events.
"He’s probably got the biggest sporting event in the world this year as the finale." Red Bull may get new competition
Next season Horner will face a new challenge. Because of the changes to the cars, it will be up to Red Bull to once again compete with the top teams in
Formula 1. Mercedes seem to be on their way to a good season, but it seems that
McLaren and
Ferrari are also making good progress in the coming months.
