Red Bull are currently 130 points clear of nearest rivals McLaren and need to be 129 ahead after Sunday's race to clinch back-to-back constructors' crowns.
Team boss Christian Horner
The two titles carry equal status, although obviously the drivers' is the one the public remember. Within the team, if you ask the guys on the shop floor the constructors' is the one where their pride is because that is where they are measured against their peers up and down the pitlane. And their bonus is paid on the constructors', so that is the one that carries the real weight. From a prestige point of view it is right up there, so they both have the same weight, the same value to us, but right now only half the mission is accomplished. The drivers' world championship is the first part, the second part is to retain the constructors', and although we've a healthy lead, we take nothing for granted.
