‘Beyond my wildest expectations’ – Horner praises Red Bull for dominating first half of 2022

After Max Verstappen sealed Red Bull’s eighth win of the season at this weekend’s French Grand Prix, Team Principal Christian Horner praised the “phenomenal” work of his team and said their sizeable leads at the top of both championships have surpassed his “wildest expectations.”

Red Bull have won eight out of the opening 12 races of the season in a dominant start to the 2022 season and, as things stand, Verstappen currently holds a 63-point lead at the top of the drivers’ championship to Charles Leclerc, while Red Bull have an 82-point lead over Ferrari in the constructors’ championship.

“Look, if you would have told me that going into last year that with the biggest regulation change in 40 years and with the effort we put into last year’s championship, that we’d be sitting here with eight Grand Prix victories, two Sprint victories and leading both championships with 64 and 82 points, that would have been beyond my wildest expectations,” said Horner.
