It's Christian Horner's birthday. The team boss of Red Bull Racing turned 47 today. The Brit has been at the helm of Red Bull Racing since 2005, right from the start, and can call himself the boss of Max Verstappen since 2016.
Another birthday present
Verstappen congratulated his team boss via Twitter on his first day as a 47 year old. He also referred to the disappointing result at the Turkish Grand Prix. "I wish we could have given you a better present yesterday...," the Dutchman tweeted. Verstappen finished in sixth place this weekend whilst his team mate Alexander Albon finished seventh.
