Why Red Bull might have one more victory shot
Red Bull won in Mexico and should have won in Brazil but for the intervention of Esteban Ocon. But its pace in Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Friday practice suggests one final victory with Renault power should not be ruled out for the team
Red Bull should be going into the business end of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix weekend with a shot at one final victory in 2018 - one that could have potentially made it a hat-trick had things worked out differently in Brazil.
While a repeat of the front-row lockout from Mexico doesn't appear to be on the cards, there is the realistic hope of the team qualifying better than the third row, and if Red Bull can do that, the pace appears to be there for it to mix it at the front as Max Verstappen did at Interlagos two weeks ago.
