Christian Horner snapped back at a question from Sky Sports after his Red Bull team won again at the Austrian Grand Prix.
The defending champions continued their 100 per cent record so far this season on an excellent afternoon for the team. Max Verstappen was again unchallenged as he romped to victory.
And he was joined on the podium, for the first time since Miami at the start of May, by his team-mate. Sergio Perez drove from 15th on the grid to finish third, winning an exciting late tussle with Carlos Sainz.
So Horner had a big smile on his face as he took part in his usual post-race interview with Sky. That was, at least, until presenter Simon Lazenby asked him a question which changed his mood a little.
That's because it is one that he has been posed with so many times already this season. Given how dominant Red Bull have been, it has become a weekly tradition to ask Horner whether his team can go unbeaten in 2023.
Inside the driver call which upset Red Bull and changed the course of F1 historyThis time, though, he voiced some frustration about being asked about it yet again. "It drives me nuts when you ask those questions," he said, before humouring Lazenby with a response. "We can only take it one race at a time.
"Can we? Yes. Will we? Who knows? I mean, reliability, weather... Silverstone next weekend will be epic, it will be fantastic there. But who knows what obstacles there could be. We saw what happened there last year. It's a race we haven't won since Mark [Webber] in 2012 so that's a big race for us on this calendar."
No team has ever gone unbeaten across a whole Formula 1 season. McLaren won all but one of the races in 1988 while Mercedes won 19 Grands Prix out of 21 in 2016.
So if Red Bull were to manage it with an even larger race calendar, it would be an extraordinary achievement. And it would prove George Russell right, after the Brit made the extraordinary prediction Red Bull would win every race after just the first Grand Prix of the year in Bahrain.
The Mercedes racer said: "They should win every single race this season. With the performance they have got I don't see anyone challenging them. They have got it easy at the moment and they can do what they like."
