Red Bull Racing could be satisfied with the race weekend at the United States Grand Prix, with Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez finishing first and third respectively. The Austrian racing team summed up its American adventure in a new episode of Behind The Charge.

The race in America seemed to be an ideal opportunity for Mercedes to regain the lead in the world championship with Lewis Hamilton. The difference between the Brit and Verstappen was six points at the time, so a victory would give Hamilton enough points to regain the lead. Nothing was further from the truth though, as the Austrians surprised with a strong weekend.

Verstappen used a clever strategy to stay at the front of the race and take the 25 points. With the victory the Dutchman has a twelve point lead over Hamilton. The next race in Mexico also seems to be in Verstappen's favour.
