Red Bull boss Mekies says Hadjar delivered his best race in Brazil

Laurent Mekies said Isack Hadjar delivered his best race for Red Bull at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, praising the pace that helped him finish third. The result gave Red Bull a double podium and showed Hadjar continuing to raise his performance level in his debut season with the team.

Hadjar started fifth and has now earned three podiums for Red Bull this season, with earlier third-place finishes in Monaco and Azerbaijan. The 22-year-old recently extended his contract through 2027, though retirements in Australia and Miami have also interrupted his campaign. Max Verstappen finished second after starting 21st because a power unit issue on Friday led to a penalty.
