Christian Horner has praised Nico Rosberg for his dominant display in the Singapore Grand Prix and says the German was too quick for Daniel Ricciardo all afternoon.
The Mercedes driver led from start to finish despite late pressure from Ricciardo, who held off Lewis Hamilton in third.
And Horner believes second was the best Red Bull could have achieved on a tough weekend.
"Nico had a very strong weekend, he had a bit too much for us in qualifying, and in the race we tried everything we could,” he said.
"I think the intention was for Nico to cover us, but we thwarted that at the last minute because Daniel's out-lap was so stonkingly strong - together with a fast pitstop. We were within the undercut.
"Having run the maths quickly, it looked like we'd catch him within a lap or two of the end.
"But having hit his tyres pretty hard at the beginning of the stint, they then started to run out of steam a little bit towards the end of the stint.
"Whilst Daniel did a fantastic job to close Nico down over the last laps, they had just left enough in hand to keep a margin until the chequered flag.
"To get within half a second in two hours [the elapsed race time] was a great performance, but it just wasn't quite enough."
