Christian Horner is worried reliability issues may hamper Max Verstappen ’s title chances this year. The Dutchman overcame a nightmare end to the Bahrain GP to record his first win of the season in Saudi Arabia on Sunday.
He prevailed in an entertaining duel with Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, who crossed the line second and is the current championship leader. However, there is concern regarding the reliability of Honda, the manufacturer that provides Red Bull with their engines.
Horner had been coy all weekend on his optimism of making it to the end of the race with all of the RBPT engines in tact. “Of course, we’re concerned about it, but I think, first, we have to understand what it is,” he told RacingNews365.com.
