Red Bull Racing boss Christian Horner doesn't believe that Sebastian Vettel or Lewis Hamilton would fit in well at his team. Instead, he would rather bring in young talent who will be the future of the sport.
“It’s difficult to see how two alphas can fit in a team," said Horner at a Red Bull team event. "You can see the problem that Ferrari have had. Why would it be any different at Red Bull with two alpha drivers?.
“Same with Lewis at Ferrari or Lewis at Red Bull. That is a very difficult dynamic, especially in a tight competition.
“We have Max. We have always taken the policy if investing in young talent, nurturing and developing that talent. Lewis doesn’t fit into that.”
Both Hamilton and Vettel come out of contract at the end of 2020 and it seems that Horner has limited their options in terms of moving to his team!
