HORNER: EXCITING

Speaking at the launch, team principal and CEO Christian Horner; “This is an incredibly exciting time. Both for us and for our stakeholders. We embark on this journey with the goal of 2026. Our goal is to bring the Ford brand back into the race and establish a structure that includes engines and power units within the scope of the Red Bull – Ford cooperation. We are now in New York for the 2023 season opener. We are promoting the team and the vehicle. It is very special for us to be here. 2022 has been an unforgettable year for us both in terms of the team and the drivers. We came here as owners of these titles and naturally our goal for next season will be to protect these titles. Our opponents are very challenging, but we can reach the goal by maintaining the momentum we achieved in 2022. The United States is very special to us. There is a large audience here that is interested in our sport and a very large youth audience that we can win over. We did 3 races here and they were all very special. It is an important location not only for our team but also for Formula 1. Many of our business partners are also established in this country, so there could not be a better location for the 2023 opening.” he made statements.

SERGIO PÉREZ: IT IS A GREAT WORK

Speaking after the launch, Perez said: “We are here to promote our new vehicle. There is a lot of effort involved in creating this vehicle, which is why it is so important to show the world our new car. The number of our fans in the United States has increased enormously. There are a lot of Mexicans here, especially, and that’s especially important to me. Our new clothes are very comfortable and stylish. We have been to 3 races in the Americas so far and we had the opportunity to see the support very closely. We have become the most loved and supported team in this country and it is a true privilege for us.” he said.

MAX VERSTAPPEN: I VIEW THIS SEASON POSITIVELY

Stating that he was very excited after the launch, Max Verstappen said: “We are very excited to be here. As Checo said, we went to 3 races here. It is very valuable to be here today as well, with the support we will do everything possible to preserve the title we have here. 2022 has been an amazing year. At the end of the year, we will try to recover the stability we showed. Of course, other teams continue to improve, but I also have a positive outlook for this season. There may be a lot of changes in 2026 and it is invaluable to have a major brand like Ford supporting us as we move forward with these changes.” he used the phrases.

RICCIARDO: IT SEEMS FAST

Expressing that he is happy to return to the Red Bull family again, Ricciardo said: “2023
It was the year I came home. 3. I will be serving as a pilot, but being here makes me feel very happy. Our new car seems very fast. They have very fast lines. Ever since we first saw the car, the season openers have always excited me. I’m sure the new car is as fast as ever.” Said he.
