Red Bull can try all they like to get under the skin of their new Aston Martin rivals – but Mike Krack is refusing to take the bait.
Much like last season, Red Bull are the team to beat this year and seem to already be on the path to the title after a storming victory in Bahrain. More surprising was that their closest challengers were not the usual suspects Ferrari and Mercedes, but an Aston Martin team on the rise.
Fernando Alonso finished third behind the two Red Bull drivers with Lance Stroll sixth despite racing with pins in his fractured wrist. They have both been given what looks to be a very competitive car this season, in the form of the AMR23.
