” Most importantly, through this window here I can see the track,” said Horner.

” Other pit walls, not many of them, have that now. But I still am a little bit old-fashioned that I wanna see the car go past. Because sometimes, you can see if the driver is getting a run or if something is about to happen.” continued Horner.

“It’s never been anything personal about a single driver. It’s about the events that happened, and a competition between two guys, it’s not individual to any driver. If that had been any other driver, the reaction would have been identical. So I was a little surprised by the Mercedes comments.” said Horner.

Red Bull would look to bounce back in Hungary after their Silverstone failure.

Can Red Bull win in Hungary? Let us know.
