‘Christian Horner wants control and power’ as true Red Bull desire suggested by David Croft

Sky F1 commentator David Croft believes the “animosity” from the side of Christian Horner towards Mercedes counterpart Toto Wolff comes from wanting the “control” and “power” which Wolff has.

“I think Christian and Toto will carry on the war of words for their entirety of their time in Formula 1,” said Croft. “Toto is doing everything that you would expect one of your rivals to do and if your driver is making it public that he might leave, he’s going to put his arm around him, he’s going to tell him that he’s the most important person on the planet and ‘come over to us, the grass is much greener at Brackley than it is at Milton Keynes’.

“And Christian Horner, he might be a CEO and he might be a team principal, but he’s a paid employee of the Red Bull Formula 1 team, so he hasn’t got that autonomy to make decisions in the way that Toto has and I think a lot of the animosity on Christian’s side maybe stems from that. But I think Toto also knows how to wind Christian up as well.”
