Herbert saw Horner booed by Brits: 'Own fault!'

Even Herbert, accused of bias last year and now sidelined as F1 steward by the FIA, had seen and more importantly heard how inappropriately the British crowd had approached the Red Bull Racing perosnnel during the celebratory event. Justified or not, was the question from the betting site where Herbert gets his paycheck from these days.

"It’s not for me to sort of judge Christian in any shape or form," Herbert responded. "But I guess there’s a feeling now, because of everything that’s going on within the team, everything that’s gone on with Max on the track that Christian and Red Bull have been stirring it all up in many respects."

'Red Bull, the bad boy in the pack'

Next, Herbert seemed to hint at the affair between Horner and his personal assistant, which would still be simmering underneath. First, Herbert said, "Christian doesn’t hold back when he talks and he will only do things that benefit him, that benefit Red Bull and benefit Max. So, there’s always going to be the bad boy in the pack."

"Red Bull have historically always been very on the edge, always pushing the boundaries, that’s part of the game. But I think people did, for whatever their reasons were, show their disappointment or their frustrations, maybe with everything that’s been going on," the former driver said.
