Ralf Schumacher does not seem to be a fan of Christian Horner. While the Red Bull Racing team boss has been under huge fire for a while now, Schumacher continues to criticise him. Having previously indicated that it would be better if Horner quit as team boss at the world champion, Schumacher now expects the Briton to drag colleagues along in his fall.

Schumacher is closely following developments at Red Bull. Schumacher seems to understand the situation. Indeed, according to the German, the team boss has 'made a lot of enemies', he told the German version of Sky Sports.

'Horner is intimidating people now'

"He seems very obsessed with power. He has achieved a lot and wants very much to keep his position, and he pulls out all the stops to make that happen. You also hear that he intimidates people. When he has to leave, the cesspool then opens. It's all very exciting."

Yet Schumacher is keen to stress that he really likes Horner as a person. For example, the German indicates as a plus that the team boss is always available for interviews. But Michael's brother is also critical: the current situation could have been avoided. "I think it is very tough for his wife after everything that has happened in their marriage," he said.

Without power a team boss is nothing. All the good and respected TP past and present needed power to be successful. The problem is that some people see it as a negative factor. Imagine a Mercedes without a powerful Toto. Power and success goes hand in hand when it comes to F1. That's why we always have power struggles. With power struggles comes rumors and that's what the media wants.

R. Schumacher really hates Horner. Is he jealous of Horner's success?

Well Ralph is absolutely on point ,I did share this on another post. He has a goal of owning Redbull Technologies, thats the Racing Team and the car manufacturing division. He had the UK backers to buy out the Austrian side and he has the backing of the Thai side . So he is not going anywhere

How can he be on point? He's continuing to spread more rumours. It doesn't make sense.

Noticed he said "seems" and not "is"? There's a big difference between those two words.

Here we go, the old (real) VW is back... Twisting words again in a desperate attempt to convince himself he is right... But go ahead if it makes you feel proud about yourself.

OMW wreck it Ralph. What does their marriage got to do with you? In fact what does CH and Geri's life's got to do with you? Why don't we just put you head on the chopping block and dissect your whole life and expose it to the media. You are a troll. Please get a life.
