At the recent Autosport Awards Charity Auction, Mercedes put up a tour of their AMG Petronas F1 facility as one of the prizes.

The winning bid was made by a certain Christian Horner who said he wanted to take about twenty people with him. laugh

When I first saw the tweet, the name on the winning bid was Chrisrian Horner, not Christian, so it may not be such good trolling from the actual bloke, just one of his fans?

People don't 'forget' but are generally quick to move on - but only if they're allowed to.

That last part really depends on the FIA and Masi or whichever donkey they put in his place. If the outrageous decision making we witnessed last year starts to repeat itself then people will absolutely remember and go through every detail of what happened last year as they draw parallels.

Maybe the best thing to hope for is that under Masi's watch last year the 'influencing' was so blatant that this year there will be an active effort to be a bit more hands off!

I see that the track radio conversation, where whinger almost instructed Masi to let the angry close up on Lewis has not quite done either of them any favours.

What a disgraceful individual.

Even if genuine and he did win he will not be allowed to visit, apparently the small print is such that employees of other Formula 1 teams are not eligible to take this tour.

Im sure they would be delighted if he visited.

I'd have thought they could probably accommodate a tour, there would just be various things they wouldn't show.
I doubt there is much they'd be happy to show joe public but not someone from another team.

so the latest Christian Horner sthousery is the fact that he thinks female viewers of F1/ drive to survive only watch the sport because of the 'hot' drivers.

Of course.

What bothers me most about this is that I'm not sure that he [Christian Horner] actually believes this. He has to say this to legitimise Max and RedBull's "win".

That twunt will say black is white if it's to his advantage. Zero integrity, and without getting too carried away, everything that is wrong with modern society.
