Red Bull can still improve according to Horner
The Red Bull Racing team has won the drivers' and constructors' titles in the past two years, but Christian Horner believes the team can improve to be even better in 2012.
The Red Bull Racing team has been the team to beat for two seasons already, clearly having the best car and also two very good drivers with Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber. However, Christian Horner, the team director, believes that the team can still improve.
« We know that our rivals will not stand idly by, but what makes this title and retaining it so special is having rivals of very high quality. I think that in all areas we were stronger in 2011 than we were in 2010, and with continuity, I am convinced that we can still improve, » explained Christian Horner.
Horner also thinks there’s a chance the RB8 will be competitive because there is some continuity between the 2011 and 2012 regulations – even though blown diffusers have been banned. But the team is not going to rest on its laurels and will continue to work very hard to stay ahead of its rivals from the start of the season in Australia in March 2012.
The team is very motivated and, of course, even though we don’t know what the other teams are doing, there is a certain continuity in the regulations. But nothing is guaranteed. We will stay focused, we will continue working very hard, and hope that we can have a competitive RB8 next spring in Melbourne, added Horner.
