“GP, he’s our Jason Statham equivalent, they certainly look alike, and he deals with him firmly but fairly,” Horner explained. He highlighted the mutual trust and respect that has developed between the driver and engineer over the years, a crucial element in their successful partnership.
The Red Bull team principal acknowledged that Verstappen’s communication with Lambiase happens in a public arena, with millions of fans listening in, making it more challenging to manage any moments of frustration. However, Horner praised GP’s ability to handle the pressure and maintain a strong bond with Verstappen, highlighting that they share a great trust in each other.
