Red Bull team boss Christian Horner is sure Mercedes “will get it together” and recover their F1 form, identifyiꦉng their “gre🐼at strength in depth”.

Red Bull had no competition in F1 2023 as they stormed to both championships.

They won 21 of the 22 races, only missing out 🎃at the Singapore Grand Prix in what was a remarkabl꧙e campaign for the team.

The margin was so great to the teams behind, i🐟n terms of points scored, because Red Bull didn’t have a consistent threa🃏t.

The pecking order chopped and changed, with Mercedes, McLaren, Ferrari and Aston Martin🧸 all exchanging places as the second-best team.

As a re🌄sult, it’s unclear which team will be Red Bull’s nearest chal൩lenger in 2024.

Assessing Red Bull’s likel🐈y rivals, Horner said: “Mercedes has great strength in depth.

“Obviously, they've had a difficult period, but they've great drivers, and they will get it together, one would assume, at some point; McLaren had a great ꧃back end of the year, and Ferrari show flashes of real potential.

“So it's difficult to identif꧟y which of those is likely to be the bigg🍰est challenger, but you could take your pick almost.”

Horner refused to rule out Aston Martin either, with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fernando Alonso scoring eight podiums in 2023.

While their form did tail off, Horner acknowledged Aston M🧔artin’s “big facilities" and “big resources”.

“They made a huge step at the beginning of the year, but they really tailed off in the second half. I'm sure they're looking to understand why that happened,😼” he added.

“But th🌃ey've got big facilities, big resources, and they've recruited a lot of talent into that team, and Fernando was brilliant (last year). He drove fantastically well. For a 42-year-old guy, I thought he w𝓀as outstanding.”
