Christian Horner doesn't believe Red Bull needed to issue a public response to the revelations of racist slurs from Nelson Piquet directed towards Lewis Hamilton.
Many Formula 1 teams were quick to voice their support for the Briton on social media, after footage emerged of Piquet using a slang version of the n-word to describe him in a video from last year. Red Bull, though, was one of the teams which stayed quiet on the situation.
According to team principal Horner, Red Bull had already made their position on racism clear with the sacking of development driver Juri Vips. The F2 racer used the n-word while participating in a gaming live stream, and soon found himself axed from the young drivers' programme.
