Red Bull Racing looks relaxed for the time being during the Australian Grand Prix. The team is working hard behind the scenes to make things as difficult as possible for rival Ferrari, although Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez also have time for other things.
Formula 1 will be back in Australia this weekend for the first time in three years. The Austrian racing stable decided to pay extensive attention to this. For example, in the video below Verstappen instructed Perez to pronounce a sentence the Australian way, which caused a lot of laughter.

Earlier in the day Perez already spoke very positively about the Las Vegas GP that is on the program next season. According to Perez, it is a good thing that the FIA has chosen to hold a third race in the United States.
