This was met happily by Red Bull Team Principal Christian Horner. As Horner hoped that the Russian driver continues to have more kids if it provides for such great results.
Unbelievable – he should have more kids!… For him to become a father last night and be on the podium today – it was a very mature drive by him.
Horner said.
