Max Verstappen and Red Bull-Ford make F1 history: 'Incredible!'

Max Verstappen secured a historic victory at the Bahrain Grand Prix, marking the first win for Red Bull-Ford Powertrains in their debut Formula 1 season. After a chaotic race that included a lengthy delay and a late safety car, Verstappen managed to reclaim the lead after initially losing it at the start to Mercedes drivers Kimi Antonelli and George Russell.

Verstappen expressed pride in the achievement, calling it 'incredible' to win in their first year with their own power unit. He highlighted the challenges faced during the race, including a lack of power at the start, but credited the team's strategy with the intermediates for their success. This win adds to Verstappen's impressive career tally, bringing him to 72 victories.
