Christian Horner has responded to Zak Brown’s cheeky jab - a wa🎐ter bottle labe𒉰lled ‘tyre water’ - which poked fun at Red Bull’s recent accusations.

Red Bull have been perplexed by McLaren’s superior tyre management since the🌊 end of last seasoಞn.

It led to wild suggestions that the Woking outfit were using water-cooling tricks to cool down the tyr⛦es and thus help them manꩲage them during the race.

In Miami, once in clean air, the McLaren duo were over one second faster than t✤he rest of t🗹he field.

Whenever track temperatures are high, Mc꧒Laren’s advantage over their competit🎉ors increases.

After the race, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen descri꧅bed McLaren’s tyre management as “𒐪incredible”.

When asked if McLaren’s advantage🎐 was down to the tyres, Verstappen said: “A lot, but I think also it’s in general, pure performance of the car.

“But also yeah, the management they have on their tyres is inc𝕴redible.”

On Friday in Miami, Bro🍨wn was seen on the McLaren 🃏pit wall with a water bottle labelled “tyre water”.

Horner responded to Brown’s cheeky ‘tyre water’ stunt by saying, “There are always going to be questions that are raised” when one F1 team is domi🎶nating.

“Of course, in F1, there are always going to be questions♒ that are raised,” he said to media in Miami, where  were present.

“They did exactly the same about the front suspension on our ca♌r last year. So it’s inevitable when you’re running at the ඣfront as we have for the last quite a few years, you always come under more scrutiny.

“So that’s part and parcel of F1. And in many respects, for the FIA, the teams, all of the team𝓀s, do the vast majority of the work, because, of course, their resource is far greater, and there’s always a competitor analysis going on across all of the teams.”

Even꧟ though the rules are changing for next year, Horner is keen to understand where Mc💜Laren’s advantage is coming from.

“Obviously, McLaren is the standout car,” he add🙈ed.

“They had the kind ♓of advantage thatℱ we saw a couple of years ago, and they’re obviously doing a very good job in managing temperatures and, particularly, I think if you look at the end of the medium tyre stint, that was probably where they were the most competitive.

“So that’s what we need to focus on. I think we had brake issues that have compounded the pꦛroblem in the race, but that’s what we need to understand.”
