Red Bull full of misunderstanding after bizarre cry for help from ‘naive’ Aston Martin

At Aston Martin, people are frustrated by the new rules, which, according to team boss Otmar Szafnauer, are putting his team at a disadvantage. He therefore wants the rules to be amended as soon as possible, so that his team is accommodated. When Red Bull team boss Christian Horner hears the comments of his fellow team boss, he doesn’t understand at all Szafnauer’s way of thinking.

“I’m a little surprised to hear this,” was his initial response. “We had one race won by Mercedes, a car with a low rake concept. Their tire wear was as good if not better than ours in Bahrain. Here in Imola they already look very impressive,” said he in front of the camera Sky Sports.

Even if it was true that the teams with low rake had hit harder, the rules were not just put in place, Horner says. “If we ignore all that, then there is also just a process that is followed for introducing new rules. Everyone voted unanimously for the rules,” said the Red Bull team principal, recalling a similar situation in which his team lopsided dolphin.

“A few years ago there were also changes made to the front wings, which we also voted against. Those changes were absolutely not in our favor and hurt us, but you just have to accept it,” concludes Horner, who cannot understand. for the statements of Szafnauer.

“It is very naive to think that the rules introduced after following the correct process will be changed again after a single race. I really have a hard time understanding him.”
