Red Bull boss Christian Horner has claimed Mercedes told Lewis Hamilton to “bitch” about his back pain so that they can pressure F1 chiefs into changing the rules for their benefit.
It came after the Azerbaijan on Grand Prix on Sunday where the 2.2km main straight in Baku would have been bad for their car as it suffers extremely badly from the porpoising effect.
This is when the car is so low to the ground, it starts bouncing up and down off the ground when going at high speeds along straights and was made even worse by the bumpy nature of the street circuit.
