Formula 1 in Las Vegas
A holiday for red-white-red too
A holiday for red-white-red: AUSTRIA was written in capital letters at the Formula 1 in Las Vegas!
Not only Red Bull, headquartered in Fuschl (the team itself is based in Milton Keynes), was able to celebrate its fourth world championship title with Max Verstappen, but Toto Wolff from Vienna also had every reason to pop the champagne corks as Mercedes team boss in the casino stronghold in the Mojave Desert thanks to the first one-two victory by George Russell and Lewis Hamilton (who won his first world championship title with the "Silver Arrows" ten years ago to the day) since Brazil 2022.
"We were ahead in every session here and had better tire management than all our opponents," said a delighted Wolff. "George drove a perfect race and Lewis also got back on his feet after a mixed qualifying (10th place). So we can be really happy."
And so it was clear that the "star squad" had to get a good night's sleep. "I canceled my flight home. Las Vegas is such a crazy place, there's no better place to celebrate a win like this. And that's what we're going to do," beamed Russell on the podium.
Before leaving, Wolff congratulated the champion. "Max is a worthy world champion. He was already one of the greatest, now he's grown a bit more."
