But, not everybodওy took up the Red Bull boss on his generous offer!

But🦂, it gave Horner an interesting perspective into h💜ow Max Verstappen and Lando Norris chat about racing, just days before they duelled at the F1 British Grand Prix.

“You could see he enjoyed raci𝐆ng with Lando,” Horner said after his star driver won Silverstone.

“There’s a good respect b🐓etween the two of them. He’s a racer. He enjoys racing. 

“I had all the drivers for a barbecue at my house last night, and you could see, they go🎐 straight into talking about moments on-track. 

“Their eyes light up about what happened here or there🔯, or even in Formula 3 or karting. You see his eyes light up.”

Did all 20 drivers attend, he was asked.

“No, no. About half the grid,” Horner answered.

Oh, to be a fly on the wall for the conversations♉!

Red Bull have now won 11 grands prix in a row, the first time anybody ha𒐪s done that since 1988.

“It’s an incredible record,” Horner said. 

“McLaren 1988, with the McLaren-Ho🍸nda, achieved those 11 victories with Senna and Prost. 

“To think that we’ve matched that, that’s teꦉstimony to the hard work of the team, of the commitment, of the drivers, of reliability, of strategy. It’s hard to win a grand prix. 

“Winning 11 in a row is, and I think we’ve won, I think something, you’d have to do the maths, but it must be close to 19 of the last 20 or𒅌 18 of the last 19. 

“It’s bee📖n a p𒊎henomenal run of success for us. I think it’s something, particularly here at Silverstone, our local circuit.

“The factory is only 15 miles up the road. We have so man𓆉y employees living in the local area. To have achieved this result here is something the whole team can be immensely proud of.”

Verstappen is on course for a third F1 champ🌸ionship in a row.

But is he at risk of ever burning out?

“I don’t think burnout,” Horner said. 

“He’s a pretty laid back ch💯aracter, he enjo♓ys his racing, he loves his racing. 

“But I don’t think he’ll be racing when he’s Brad Pitt’s age in🌟 ꦕFormula 1.”
