Christian Horner's post-Chinese GP interview got a little fiery...

Christian Horner says Toto Wolff should focus on “other elements” and not Max Verstappen, after all, Mercedes are the “third team behind their customers at the moment”.

Told of Wolff’s latest comments after the Chinese Grand Prix, the Red Bull team boss replied: “I’ve got to think carefully about what I say here. “I don’t think Toto’s problems are his drivers; I think he’s probably got other elements that he needs to be focusing on rather than focusing on drivers that are unavailable.”But as the post-race interview went on, Horner got a bit fiery with his answers.

Not letting it go as the questions moved to 2026, Horner added: “Have you heard George Russell is out of contract at the end of ’25?However, told that at no point had Verstappen ‘unequivocally’ said that ‘100 percent I am staying’, Horner chimed in: “In what conference of the many that he’s done has he said I am unequivocally committed to my contract and the team.”
