Horner reveals: 'Great to see RB20 come to life'
Christian Horner is in the spotlight at the moment. Not in a good way as there is an investigation into alleged inappropriate behaviour. But the Brit is in Bahrain for winter testing. Horner reacts to seeing the RB20 with which the team are trying to defend the championship.
"It was great to be back on track at Silverstone," the team boss said about Red Bull's filming day last week. "Seeing the RB20 come to life is incredible. It is always a special moment seeing a car drive down the pitlane for the first time."

"Max and Checo both got a good feel for the car, there is nothing to be deuced from the performance but it’s a moment to get those simple basics out and the way and tick a few boxes before heading out to Bahrain. We are looking forward to seeing the car in drier conditions now," continued the 50-year-old Red Bull man.
Earlier, Verstappen and Perez said they were eager to get behind the wheel of the RB20 again. This will happen during the test days in Bahrain. In any case, the goal for next season is clear to Horner. "Our goal and aim for 2024 has to be to defend both Championships," he said.
