Red Bull Racing boss Christian Horner spoke at a press conference on Friday about the consequences of the fine imposed on the team for violating financial regulations in 2021…
Christian Horner «It’s nice to see that the penalty went to a good cause. (laughs) FIA has a new bench, Tom has [ведущего пресс-конференции] new suit. It’s great that their resources in the FIA are spent so effectively.
Efficiency is also a key concept for us, especially given the loss of 10% of the time in the wind tunnel. The team has done a fantastic job building a competitive car, but the penalty is for the whole year – we’ll serve it out for another eight or nine months. This means we have to be selective and efficient when refining the machine. Just like developing a car for 2024.
With next year’s car, a lot depends on whether something changes in the rules. You know, we count on stable regulation, but not only do we lose 10% of the time in the pipeline because of a fine, but also another 10% for winning the Constructors’ Championship last year. We will have 15% less time than Ferrari, 20% less than Mercedes and so on. This is a significant loss, so it is especially important for us to act as efficiently as possible.”
