Horner after Austrian Grand Prix: 'A weekend to forget'

Published on 29 June 2025 by Julien Lemmen

The Oracle Red Bull Racing team left Austria empty-handed. With Max Verstappen being hit on the first lap and a last-place finish from teammate Yuki Tsunoda, no points were scored by the Milton Keynes-based team for the first time since the 2022 Bahrain Grand Prix.

Team principal Christian Horner reflects after the race: "It was a horrible race for us and desperately unlucky for Max to be taken out at turn 3 when he had done nothing wrong, he had a good start and made good progress. It’s a shame, I don’t think we would have been racing the McLarens today but we would have been racing the Ferraris pretty hard. Unfortunately for us it was a weekend to forget."
