Horner praises Verstappen's "huge" mental resilience after stunning win

More than once this season, Max Verstappen was unbearable after an F1 session. Then the Red Bull Racing driver complained about the balance of his RB20, the lack of speed and the problems he and his team were constantly facing. But the three-time world champion never gave up. Last Sunday in Brazil, the reward for his fortitude came, with a mighty win on the wet Interlagos circuit.
Christian Horner branded Max Verstappen’s scintillating victory at the Brazilian Grand Prix as “one of the great drives in Formula 1.” The Dutchman faced adversity by starting in P17, but he showed why he is one of the best drivers the sport has ever seen, mastering the trick Sao Paulo conditions in the driving rain to move his way up the grid and take a title-defining race win, his first since the Spanish Grand Prix.
