Red Bull will ensure Sergio Perez and Max Verstappen battle for the Formula One World Championship on an even basis and without favouritism, says team principal Christian Horner.

Daniel Ricciardo says he still has the hunger to compete in Formula 1 and the "signs are pointing" to him being back on the grid in 2024, with Red Bull boss Christian Horner saying the Australian was race ready.
Max Verstappen said he felt like he was racing with one lung in Saudi Arabia and is still not match-fit for this weekend’s Australian Grand Prix.
Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton admitted on Friday that Mercedes had little hope of keeping pace with the Red Bulls in Australia, and matching his fifth-place finish in Saudi Arabia was a more realistic target.
MELBOURNE : A fit and well Daniel Ricciardo would be ready to race a Red Bull car in Formula One at the drop of a hat if required, team boss Christian Horner said on Friday.

Alonso beat Charles Leclerc by 0.445 seconds, with Max Verstappen a further 0.170 further adrift, although all the best lap times were set on the medium tyres as rain meant the normal qualifying simulations were not conducted. Ad George Russell was fourth for Mercedes, while Lewis Hamilton struggled with setup so was down in 13th place.
Fernando Alonso clarified his intentions as he chases his first Formula 1 victory in 10 years. The Spaniard put his Aston Martin at the top of the times in the second practice session for this weekend's Australian Grand Prix, pipping Ferrari's Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen from Red Bull.
