You know, for a bunch of blokes who have spent the last few months banging on about what an arse Horner is, you lot haven’t exactly covered yourselves in glory over the last page or so.
You're right. I've deleted my post.

Shes i great shape for her age. Each to their own but some like a more "chunky" look as someones stated, others like stick thin.

I do find it sad how its panned out but if someone has previous then surely you air on the side of "this may happen to me/again", so naive possibly but love can be blinding.

Just to state im not a powerfully built director. But i firmly believe in responding to sly digs. Perhaps others havent learnt that yet. Mind its the old adage of "wouldnt say it to ones face". Laughable.

Either way, back to Horner the rat....looks like hes weathered the storm, but no doubt it will eventually catch up with him in some form.

I know we've gone from Mr Horner to Mrs Horner, but I do feel a bit sorry for her. She's being dragged through all the st that is CH's fault because he's a tt that can't keep it in his pants.

I feel sorry for her, just like I feel sorry for his ex-wife when he did the same to her. This is CH's doing, not GH's.

I like her, but can't help but feel she's been very naïve to think that he wouldn't have another affair? Not sure why women think that the person they had an affair with would suddenly change and settle down with them. Odd
Kinda like buying a sport car with well known faults hoping they don't happen to you when you own it. At the end of the day you make your choice, hope for the best and enjoy the ride...

Very very true....Sad but what did she expect. Still putting that to one side it is a sorry and sad situation. Especially when youve probably got to make some kind of "front" for the media until you work it all out behind the scenes. When in the real world, its probably not what she wanted to do.
In saying that, what do we or i even know deep down.
We can judge but most people havent walked in those shoes. (hopefully)

The flirting/sexting (whatever the extent of what went on) being leaked was just a bi-product of the storm me thinks. I doubt the core upset that caused the leak is resolved.

There are three entities: Marko who has the backing of Max and his Dad, along with the Austrian side of Red Bull, Horner who has the backing of the more powerful Thai side of Red Bull, and the Verstappen's who demand.. probably whatever they want so long as Max is to remain at the team.

That's a lot of powerful people with different ideas, and that situation clearly came to a head and caused the leak. But... nothing has actually changed, so they can't all be happy, no one has actually won - but all three will be fed up until at least one of them gets everything they want.

It can't be harmonious behind the scenes so long as these stubborn individuals have different ideas about who should stay/go and how things should be done.

P.s speaking of pr*cks Paul i hope you can comprehend that very basic paragraph above, i tried to make it as clear as possible. But no doubt you will struggle.
It was absolutely not my intention to significantly offend you as I have clearly done. Was just meant to be a lighthearted bit of fun.

It gives F1 some pantomime villains though, which is probably quite healthy.

Because if you do Sargeant will probably spin and crash up your arse.

That's a tricky one.. I don't ever seek to defend Horner, I see him as a turd of a man. But logically there's every reason to believe that it was the corporate Red Bull overlords and marketing teams simply didn't want verstappen snr/Horner agitator/wife beater getting any light or attention this weekend.

I can imagine Horner himself either wouldn't have cared either way, or potentially would have seen it as a PR positive from a personal perspective to show support for Jos doing the drive - he could easily have spun it as further 'evidence' that everything was friendly and lovely at the team and with the verstappen's.

My gut tells me this was not a Horner decision, but easy for the media to play it up as such.

Andrew Benson went in to it and associated matters on R5 earlier but as you say it's the "Meedya"

Irrespective of who exactly told Jos to withdraw from the event, it’s yet another example of the machinations still going on behind the scenes at the team, and the struggle for power. Even as their on-track success continues, it’s clear that all is far from good.
