Christian Horner hailed his driver Max Verstappen as one of the greats of Formula One, after the Dutchman matched Ayrton Senna’s tally of wins with victory for Red Bull at the Canadian Grand Prix.
Verstappen took the flag in Montreal with another dominant run from pole to secure his 41st career win, equalling Senna. He now has six wins from eight races this season and, with a 69-point lead over his teammate Sergio Pérez in the championship, is on course to seal his third title sooner rather than later. Horner believes those achievements have elevated his driver to stand among the very best the sport has produced.
