Horner responds: "At least I didn't point at cameras and swear"

Christian Horner is the umpteenth person to be called to account by the stewards. The Red Bull Racing team boss would have brought the FIA into discredit with his statements about the grid penalty for Max Verstappen, which he logically did not agree with.
At Sky Sports, Horner gives an initial reaction. "My frustration wasn't at marshalls, it was at circumstances," explained the Brit. "Marshalls do a wonderful job. If any offence was taken I apologise but still frustrating to be in the situation."
Horner thinks about Wolff
"We've been good with our emotions I haven't been pointing and swearing at cameras or all that kind of thing." With that, he gives his rival Toto Wolff a stab in the back.
Damon Hill thinks the Red Bull team boss is sometimes too outspoken, but Horner stresses that he simply says what he thinks. "I'm straight, I'll tell you. If I think you're being an arse, I'll tell you you're being an arse. Offending wasn't my intention my frustration was with a situation," Horner replied.
"One car didn't get a yellow flag, another got a single yellow flag and another double yellow. That's inconsistent and I think we can learn from that as a sport," concluded the Red Bull team boss.
