Max Verstappen is just one podium away from surpassing the Red Bull record set by Sebastian Vettel during his time with the team.
The 24-year-old racer, who won his first World Championship title in 2021, is leading the F1 standings after seven rounds of the 2022 season, despite suffering two mechanically-related retirements.
His third-place finish at the Monaco Grand Prix saw him score his fifth podium of the season, and the first in which he has not stood on the top step.
It was also the 65th podium of his Red Bull career, matching the total Vettel amassed during his record-breaking period with the squad, a total that Verstappen can potentially surpass in Azerbaijan.
He still has some way to go before he catches Vettel's 38 race wins for Red Bull, though, with Verstappen currently on 24.
