Him again
With the beautiful victory obtained in Australia, Carlos Sainz of Ferrari ended a streak of nine consecutive victories by Red Bull and Max Verstappen. The concrete Spanish driver had already been the one who had in the past broken the hegemony of the Anglo-Austrian teamwhen in Singapore 2023 he had archived the incredible record series of 15 successes in a row between Verstappen and Perez.
Horner jokes about it
It is no mystery that Sainz has also ended up in Red Bull’s sights for 2025, as confirmed by the team principal Christian Horner at the end of the Melbourne race.
The number one of the world champion team gave a reflection to journalists on the Spanish driver: “Carlos Sainz again. Carlos is the only driver who beat Red Bull in the last period. He seems to be our nemesis”.
As already stated by Helmut Marko, there is an air of optimism in the Anglo-Austrian team and they expect to return to the top as early as the next world championship event: “Suzuka is a fantastic track, where we have always achieved good results. And let’s talk about Honda’s home circuit. The drivers enjoy racing there and we can’t wait to return.”
