- Focus is ‘on this team, my family, my wife and going racing’
- Verstappen stormed to a 22-second win over teammate Pérez
Christian Horner has insisted he intends to remain in charge as team principal at Red Bull. The 50-year-old maintains he has retained the full backing of his team and his family despite the continuing furore after his exoneration from allegations of inappropriate behaviour made by a female employee and the leaking of messages purporting to be between Horner and the complainant.
The issue has dominated the opening race week of the season, even as Red Bull’s Max Verstappen swept to a crushing victory in the Bahrain Grand Prix by an enormous margin.
