Red Bull's Christian Horner has said setting a new Formula 1 record of 10 consecutive wins 'definitely meant something' to a 'razor sharp' Max Verstappen.
Verstappen has regularly played down the significance of his achievements and said he isn't overly concerned by chasing records.
"I wouldn’t say nervous, but I would say you could definitely feel that his focus was razor sharp, more than usual. You could see that it definitely meant something to him," team principal Horner said. Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko did feel some nerves with Verstappen before the race as it was"important" to grab the record during a uniquely dominant campaign.
