Red Bull racing consultant Helmut Marko believes that with the remaining 5 races of the season, at least two races need to be won to have the confidence to compete for the finale. Marco thinks there are too many "unexpecteds" this season, so don't think that Red Bull has more chances of winning at high-altitude tracks like Mexico and Brazil.
Red Bull F1 Teams currently trail Mercedes by 23 points in the constructors' standings, with Max Verstappen 12 points ahead of Louis Hamilton in the drivers' standings. For the team, theoretically, a maximum of 215 points could be widened. For drivers, in theory, they can win up to 125 points. Therefore, Red Bull's lead and distance from winning the world championship are more of a psychological advantage, and the competition in the next five races will be very fierce.
Speaking about the future competitive situation, Marco revealed that Red Bull F1 faces huge competitive pressure: "Looking at the rest of the races, I think we need to win at least two races to be safe, or we have the confidence to run the last race. ”
"Brazil and Mexico are both high-altitude tracks and should be better suited to our car. However, this season has been too magical and many unexpected things have happened. ”
"The so-called 'Mercedes Circuit' does not belong to Mercedes in the end, and the so-called 'Red Bull Circuit' does not belong to Red Bull in the end."
