Christian Horner, team principal and CEO of Oracle Red Bull Racing, said after the British Grand Prix at a soaked Silverstone: “Well, the race was exciting, it always is in those conditions. For us, we took a bit of a gamble with the weather, expecting a dry race and obviously when you have very low downforce in those conditions it is next to impossible.”

“I think Max did really well. He stuck with it and he got unlucky at the restart. I’m not sure what happened with Oscar, but it put Max on the wrong part of the track and then he had the spin which put him down in the order. Once the circuit started to dry up, he managed to pick his way through the pack and it was a good recovery to P5. Not the result we were looking for but well done today to Nico Hulkenberg for finally making it onto the podium.”
