Christian Horner close to tears as Red Bull's F1 title dedicated to Dietrich Mateschitz

Christian Horner struggled to contain his emotions after watching his Red Bull team seal the 2022 Formula 1 constructors' championship.

It marks the first time the team has lifted that trophy since 2013. But much of that emotion will also stem from the loss of Red Bull founder and owner Dietrich Mateschitz, who died on the eve of the United States Grand Prix after a long illness.
