WAR IN F1: Horner Blasts “Idiots” as Piastri Unleashes Ex…read more
Formula 1 has erupted into open warfare as tensions between teams, drivers, and bosses hit boiling point following a dramatic weekend on and off the track.
Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has unleashed a furious tirade, branding his critics “idiots” after a barrage of backlash surrounding Red Bull’s recent internal decisions and race tactics. The outburst comes amid growing scrutiny of his leadership and increasing whispers of unrest within the team garage.
Speaking in the aftermath of a tense race weekend, Horner didn’t hold back. “Some of these people have absolutely no idea what they’re talking about. Frankly, it’s laughable. They’re just idiots with microphones,” he fired during an interview.
But the chaos didn’t end there.
McLaren’s rising star Oscar Piastri added fuel to the fire with his own explosive remarks following what he described as “disrespectful and dangerous” tactics on track. Without naming names, the Australian hinted at underhanded moves from Red Bull rivals, calling the race “a disgrace to competitive racing.”
“It’s no longer just about pace. It’s politics, pushing limits, and dodgy decisions,” Piastri fumed. “I’m here to race, not to play mind games.”
This latest eruption has intensified an already heated championship battle, with team rivalries now spilling into the public domain. Fans and pundits alike are watching closely as the war of words threatens to overshadow the sport’s core — racing.
With the next Grand Prix just days away, the paddock is on high alert. One thing is clear: the gloves are off, and Formula 1 has descended into all-out war.
