Las Vegas Grand Prix: Preview - Red Bull

NEWS STORY
19/11/2025

Max Verstappen: "Brazil was a special race for us, I didn't think that a podium was possible but it really was an incredible turnaround by the Team and shows we never give up.

"As we head to the last triple header, it is the final stretch to the end of the season; we will try and perform as best we can and keep pushing as we have nothing to lose.

"Vegas is a fast circuit, there is low downforce and temperatures look pretty low this week so we will need to be managing our tyres well. We have great memories at this track, winning the Championship here in Vegas last year, so hopefully we have another positive performance on Sunday too."

Yuki Tsunoda: "Vegas is always a crazy week! It's very different to other races and not just the location, which is so unique. The temperatures throw up their own challenges and it means we have to try out different things to get the car to perform.

"While Brazil was tricky for me, my actual pace was there and if we can replicate that, with a less eventful race, we should be in the mix. I've been training hard since Brazil and on the sim back in the UK, it's all been about locking in focus for the remaining races of 2025."
