Talking about his new team and upcoming performances in his own YouTube channel, the 31-year-old driver conveyed, ”You don’t realise until you’re in why they’re so successful. Their mentality is not necessarily very strict.

They can be very relaxed, but when performance is required, they do it. That’s what makes Red Bull so unique in sports. The important thing now is for me to progress quickly because we have a competitive car now,” he further added.

Sergio currently stands at P8 with just 10 points in his tally after two races. He managed to finish at P12 at the recently concluded Italian Grand Prix. The Mexican international believes the season is still long with 21 more races to go and he can make amends to reach the top 5 with his performance.
