'I know there is a lot of scaremongering going around, stories that RedBull would have a hard time with the engine project and would be in sh*t...' F1
Christian Horner addresses ‘scaremongering’ claims that Red Bull are ‘in the sh*t’Christian Horner has rubbished speculation his complaints about the 50/50 power split in the design of the 2026 engines is because Red Bull are in the “sh*t”.
Led by Horner, who fears the cars won’t be able to flat-out as the drivers will have to recharge their batteries midway through a lap, the team boss has spoken about F1 creating “Frankenstein” technology and has called for a rethink.“F1 needs to be wheel-to-wheel racing. We can’t afford to lose that challenge and have drivers downshifting on the straights to regenerate batteries,” he explained.
“I think what frightens him is maybe that his engine programs is not coming along and maybe he wants to kill it that way,” said the Mercedes motorsport boss.
