Horner: This is one of the best weekends of Max's entire career.

      Christian Horner is delighted with Max Verstappen's victory, and the four-time world champion was indeed the fastest on the track at Suzuka. However, Yuki Tsunoda, his new team-mate, also showed professionalism and maturity, although he could not earn points, but the head of Red Bull Racing remembered him with a kind word.

      Christian Horner: "What a race! Max started from pole position, dominated and won the Japanese Grand Prix for the fourth time in a row, securing victory for himself, for the whole team and, of course, for our partners from Honda, who supply us with engines. We owe them a lot and we have to thank them for the support they have given us all these years.

      It was one of the best weekends of Max's entire career, once again confirming that he is currently the best racer in the world. He worked superbly all weekend and, together with our engineers, worked very effectively yesterday working with the car, after which he had a perfect race.

      The McLaren rivals are fast, but we were still a little faster and were able to hold off their onslaught. Max got everything out of the car, and the way he performs energizes and motivates the whole team.

      Yuki is gradually getting used to driving a new car for him, building relationships with the team and has to take a step forward over the next few races. But he ran the race confidently enough today. Although her character was such that it was very difficult to overtake, however, he still won back a couple of positions, and in the future his results will only grow.

      Our priority is to win the individual championship. It will be more difficult to win the Constructors' Cup, but the year is long, and we never give up. It's a marathon of sorts, and a lot more can change. The main thing is to make full use of all the opportunities, and that's exactly what we did this weekend.

      We understand that the RB21 has a number of shortcomings, and we know exactly what needs to be improved. But in Bahrain, we have to overcome difficulties of a completely different nature."
