Former F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone has backed Red Bull boss Christian Horner to become a pivotal figure in the sport.
Horner, 49, is currently overseeing a spell of dominance from his team, with Max Verstappen having claimed the last two world titles. The Dutchman and teammate Sergio Perez also led Red Bull to the Constructors' title last season, their first since the 2013 campaign.
And there is little sign of them easing up in 2023. Verstappen again took the chequered flag in the season opener in Bahrain last Sunday, with Perez second, with their searing pace leading Mercedes rival George Russell to predict the pair to win every Grand Prix between then this year.
