“We now h🐠ave a collection of bits in our trophy cabinet.

“Absolutely, they get the bill for that one!

“It’s a beautifu𝄹l trophy, a great piece of porcelain.

“We allow all th🍬e staff members to have their photos taken with the 💛trophy after a race win. It’s not a great picture with some bits of porcelain.”

Teased that Norris should spend his 🌳summer break fixing♎ the trophy, Horner smiled: “Yes, he should have that challenge!”

He added: “Unfortunately, we had a repeat. There wasও some damage to the constructors' trophy. Lando wasn’t involved in ꦗthat one! That one can be repaired.”

Norris did issue a genuine apology after breakin🔯g the Hungarian Grand🉐 Prix trophy.

“I do want to apologise for i🎉t," he said. "I obviously had no intention of ever doing such a thing.

"I k🥀now how much it means to the Hungarians and part of their culture. 

“And I did apologise to Max. I know I made a couple of jo🉐kes about which maybe I shouldn't have.

"If he did it to my trophy I'd be annoyed. I do apologise for it and obviously to the people who put the time and effort into making it, I really didn't mean foꦡr it to happen. I'll make sure I'm a lot more careful next time."
