A biography for Christian Hornerhasn’t been written yet.
“Twenty races is a tough season. It's a long year.”
“When you're at the top you're always going to be shot at.”
“The costs in F1 are extremely high, it is down to the regulators to control those costs through having stable regulations, every time you change the rules, there is a huge cost involved.”
“Formula 1 need to have a good look at itself. As a show, I think we need to put on a better show for the fans.”
“Sixty points is massive, especially when you are racing a Mercedes with another 70 horsepower.”
“I would put my money on both my drivers to win if it came down a streetfight.”
“Personally, I would go back to V12s, which make a tremendous noise, and have open cockpits and make the drivers heroes again.”
“I did a deal with my parents to take a year out before university at the end of 1992 to try and forge a career in motor sport. I still haven't gone. I left school at 18 and that was it.”
“F1 is a very strong business and it's got enormous heritage.”
“It's a competitive business and obviously a lot of money is involved in the sport and the regulators sometimes have difficult decisions to make, but hopefully for the benefit of Formula 1 and all the fans across the world, we can move forwards into 2008 with all the focus on the race track rather than in the courtroom.”
“Our target is to compete with Ferrari and Mercedes.”
“I'm very much a people person.”
“The Red Bull Ring is a ready-made facility, it can be ready in a very short period of time to fit the FIA's criteria.”
“The cap is a discussion about competitiveness, not about money. It's about trying to bring the top teams down to a level where the midfield teams feel they can compete. The reality is that whatever the level of spend there will always be teams that run at the front and teams that run at the back.”
“We need to think out of the box rather than just going round and round, beating ourselves up about numbers.”
“Red Bull is an energy drinks company operating a team in F1, of course it doesn't sit particularly well when you are competing against iconic brands like Ferrari and Mercedes. We are happy to be perceived as a bit of a maverick.”
“Sport can change so quickly where confidence is such a big factor.”
“We want to run at the front, we want to be competitive and, in order to be competitive, we have to have a sensible power unit.”
“We want to be a works partner. Ferrari and Mercedes have their own works teams so where would you be in the pecking order if you're a customer?”
“We have a very long-standing relationship with Renault, we've won a lot of races with them.”
