Being rivals for the world championship titles, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner and McLaren CEO Zak Brown will appear together at the FIA press conference this weekend in Shanghai, which will take place on Friday. Therefore, they could immediately reply to each other as well, if they do not agree on certain things. In terms of the drivers, Lando Norris will be present.
As usual, the team representatives' press conference will take place on Friday. However, as the Chinese Grand Prix is a Sprint weekend, the session will be hosted in between the only practice session and the Sprint Qualifying. It will be Alpine team principal Oliver Oakes that gets to join the two rivals.
A day earlier, as it is always the case, six drivers will be present. The first group involves Fernando Alonso together with two rookies, Oliver Bearman and Gabriel Bortoleto, while the winner of the season opener, Lando Norris is set to be present in the second one. Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton are missing from this list and therefore will talk to the press separately.
