Horner after qualifying in Germany: 'A solid result'

The Aston Martin Red Bull Racing-drivers qualified in third (Max Verstappen) and fifth (Alexander Albon) place for the Eifel Grand Prix

Team principal Christian Horner reflects after qualifying: “Lining up third and fifth with Max and Alex for tomorrow’s Eifel Grand Prix is a solid result which provides us with opportunities for the race. After losing all three hours of track action yesterday due to the poor weather, it was important to hit the ground running today, especially in these cold and tricky conditions, but Max and Alex were right there come qualifying. It is obviously encouraging to see our gap to Mercedes decreasing on Saturdays and the factory have been working hard to provide us with updates to bring to the track each weekend. It’s game on for tomorrow as both drivers aim to take the fight to Mercedes in what look like challenging weather conditions.”
