Team principal Horner and Red Bull fined this past fall for breach of 2021 Formula 1 budget cap.
It's safe to say that Red Bull F1 team principal Christian Horner is still not exactly thrilled by the way he and his team were treated when it was determined that the team had breached to series budget cap for 2021.and ordered to pay a $7 million fine and take a 10% hit in wind tunnel time in 2023. The FIA determined late in 2022 after a lengthy audit that Red Bull exceeded the $145 million budget cap by 1.6%.
A sarcastic Horner said on Friday in Bahrain, site of Sunday's season-opening Grand Prix, that it was good to see that at least the FIA and its communications manager Tom Wood got something out of it."Well, it's great to see the fine being applied, so well," Horner said when asked Friday in Bahrain about the fallout of the ordeal."We’ve got a new FIA couch, and Tom’s got a new suit. It’s great to see the funding into the FIA being spent very effectively.
Horner added that the real hit could come in 2024, which would seem like quite a delayed penalty since the infraction occurred in 2021."It really depends if anything changes in the regulations," Horner said."So you know, we're expecting stable regulations, but of course it is a disadvantage, a handicap, to have, not only the incremental that you have by being first place in the championship, on top of that a further 10%.
"So we're 15% less time than and 20% less than Mercedes and so on. That's a significant number, so for us it's all about being efficient, being effective in what we apply, and choose to test in the tunnel and how we develop both the 19 and, and the 20 car."
