Red Bull Racing group manager Christian Horner spoke after the Baku race about the damage left by Mercedes driver George Russell on Max Verstappen’s automobile. He firmly insists: The champ will not forget that.
There was an accident in between George Russell and Max Verstappen in the Baku Sprint and it took place when Russell was attempting to pass Verstappen. One corner later on, the Mercedes driver was ahead and the Dutchman discovered himself pressed into the wall by his competitor.
Verstappen was later on able to gain back 3rd location and surface, however the inappropriate blow triggered by the 25- year-old Englishman so outraged him that he played his competitor’s remarks after crossing the goal.
Russell asked forgiveness, offering an example of not keeping back, however that didn’t calm Verstappen. And Red Bull Racing group manager Christian Horner is persuaded that his assistant will not forget the occurrence. “He spoke his mind and it was most likely excellent that George kept his hat on,” he discussed Sky Sports F1.
” You can comprehend that he is a really enthusiastic driver and I would be dissatisfied if he is not disturbed if his cars and truck is harmed and his outcomes are impacted,” stated the Brit. And he cautioned: “Max is an elephant, he will keep in mind that, he will wait.”
Horner stated about the battle and its outcome: “That in the 2nd corner there was a fantastic race in between 2 strong riders. The part that, in my viewpoint, was excessive was the location of the 3rd turn. I believe George pressed Max extremely hard on the wall there.”
