Christian Horner details what Max Verstappen did after George Russell incident
Max Verstappen was involved in an extraordinary crash with George Russell late in the Spanish Grand Prix, only publicly admitting the following day that he had been in the wrong Christian Horner has said that Max Verstappen apologised to Red Bull colleagues for his clash with George Russell at the Spanish Grand Prix. The drama unfolded at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, where Verstappen seemed to deliberately barge into Russell's Mercedes in the dying stages of the race. After Charles Leclerc overtook the four-time Formula 1 champion, dropping him to fourth place following a late safety car, Verstappen was also barged into by Russell. He went off track and rejoined ahead of the Mercedes, furious at the contact. And his mood only worsened when his race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase told him to give up the spot. Red Bull feared he was going to get a penalty for leaving the track and gaining an advantage, which led to an angry response from the driver. Although he initially looked like he was backing down, Verstappen then shockingly veered into Russell in what seemed like a deliberate move. The incident drew fierce backlash and resulted in Verstappen being slapped with three penalty points and a 10-second time penalty.

It sent Verstappen tumbling from podium contention to 10th place, dealing a heavy blow to his and Red Bull's title hopes. Championship leader Oscar Piastri won the race while Lando Norris was second behind him in the other McLaren. While Verstappen refrained from making a public apology post-race, he did acknowledge on social media that the incident "should not have happened". And team principal Horner, reflecting on the weekend in a social media post, said Verstappen had at least said sorry to his colleagues after the race. "Spain concludes the triple-header, and we depart Barcelona feeling frustrated that we didn't extract more from the race," Horner posted on Instagram. "As a team, we opted for the three-stop strategy, which was the superior approach, and it was only the safety car that caught us out. We wouldn't have been as close to Lando without the three-stopper. "The safety car emerged at the most inconvenient moment for our strategy; we had to decide whether to stay out on older tyres or risk it with a new set of hard tyres. Hindsight is always perfect, but we made the best decision at the time based on the information we had. "The outcome was frustrating as it seemed like an easy podium for Max and valuable championship points were within reach. Max apologised in the debrief for his incident with Russell. The safety car also impacted Yuki's race. He would've been very close, if not in the points; otherwise, if you consider the trajectory he was on. "But that's motor racing. It can change in an instant. It's one of the reasons why we are all so enthralled and enamoured with this sport. It was a challenging weekend, but we will be diligently working over the next weeks to make some set-up enhancements to the car and bounce back strong in Montreal."

Flavio Briatore calls for massive F1 rule change in bonkers press conference
The FIA press conference at the Spanish Grand Prix was a memorable one with Flavio Briatore stealing the show through his irreverent presence representing Alpine Flavio Briatore certainly made an impression in his first FIA press conference since returning to Formula 1. He was representing Alpine at the Spanish Grand Prix with the team required to provide a figurehead to face the media for the first time since team principal Oliver Oakes resigned. The official FIA press conferences are usually highly structured, sedate settings – devoid of much character. That was never going to be the case this time with Briatore present and, expectedly, it led to a few memorable moments. Some of them involved genuine points being made by the Italian, such as when he gave his verdict on the budget cap which didn't exist when he first rose to prominence in F1 – he likes it, but believes it should change to include driver salaries too. Briatore said: "This was a very good idea to have the cost cap for the teams. I believe it should stay. I also believe the salary of the driver should be part of that – not only what we have now. The cost budget cap was a very good idea. I believe we should increase the budget including the salaries of the driver." But some other moments during the press conference were almost slapstick. And Briatore was encouraged by the presence of his old friend Christian Horner sitting beside him, the Red Bull boss clearly getting a kick out of the Italian's disruptive presence. Host Tom Clarkson just about got through his introductory questions without too much drama. But then as soon as the press conference was opened to questions from the floor, the very first one that went Briatore's way prompted one of the more baffling responses to a question that this platform had seen in some time. And it's not as though it wasn't a fairly straightforward ask. "Flavio, could we see Mick Schumacher racing for Alpine in Formula 1 in 2025 or 2026?" But it seemed as though Briatore misheard and thought it might have been a question about Michael Schumacher, who he worked with at Benetton in the 1990s. And so he replied: "I'm not sure why we're talking about Schumacher now. We are here in 2025. I don't understand. What you want to know?" When the question was repeated to him by Horner, he added: "I don't think it's the question to ask here, now. Next question!" And when Clarkson, with a note of exasperation, asked: "Just to be clear, is Mick going to be signed?", Briatore just snapped back: "I don't want to talk about that." Horner took the opportunity to crack a joke when he was asked a question next, replying with a grin: "I think I'm going to take a leaf out of Flavio's book and say, 'I don't want to answer it'. But then he did. Briatore did his best to as well, for a few minutes, until he appeared to lose interest mid-way through answering a question about whether he felt Pierre Gasly has what it takes to win F1 titles in the future. After 30 seconds of mumbling a half-answer, for some reason, he threw over to Horner who responded: "I have no idea what you're talking about." The Red Bull chief added: "But all I want to say is how refreshing it is to have Flav back. I mean, he had a bit of time out, but it is so much fun. These press conferences were so boring before you came back." He's right – these press conferences can be a little dull at times, and that wasn't a word that could be used to describe this one. F1 has lost some personality in the last 12 months with Daniel Ricciardo and Valtteri Bottas falling off the grid but, in Briatore, boy, has it got some back in return.

Aston Martin reserve driver plan for Canadian GP after update on Lance Stroll
With Lance Stroll in a race against time to be fit for the Canadian Grand Prix, Aston Martin need a backup plan - made more difficult by both its reserve drivers planning to race at Le Mans that same weekend Aston Martin could turn to a veteran Formula 1 star to partner Fernando Alonso at the Canadian Grand Prix. That's one of the options available to the team with Montreal native Lance Stroll in a race against time to be fit for his home race. Stroll withdrew from Sunday's Spanish Grand Prix the night before the race, citing pain in his hand and wrist that he had been suffering for some time. Aston Martin said he had experienced discomfort for around six weeks, suggesting he had driven the Saudi Arabian, Miami, Emilia Romagna and Monaco Grands Prix with the issue. He is no stranger to pain in that area – he missed pre-season in 2023 after undergoing surgery following a cycling accident while training in Spain. He broke his wrist and a toe but, just over two weeks later, raced at the Bahrain Grand Prix and, incredibly, finished sixth. But it's possible that the accelerated recovery period he went through then, in order to not miss the start of that season, may have led to this recurrence of pain. The team said his issue was "related to the procedure he underwent in 2023", but was no more specific. An Aston Martin spokesperson did not wish to comment on Stroll's personal medical situation. But it is understood that the surgery he skipped the Barcelona race for has been carried out, by Dr Xavier Mir and his team – the same expert who treated him two years ago. Aston Martin chief trackside officer Mike Krack has said that their 'Plan A' is for Stroll to race at the Canadian Grand Prix, a week on Sunday. If he cannot, then they will need an alternative plan – though the timing makes that process a little trickier than it might have been. The Montreal F1 race clashes with another major motorsport event, the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans. And both Aston Martin reserve drivers – Felipe Drugovich and Stoffel Vandoorne – are currently set to take part in the latter, representing Peugeot and Cadillac respectively. If they need to, Aston Martin have the power to pull either of them away from Le Mans to race in Canada. Drugovich in particular likely won't need much convincing, given he has waited patiently for his first chance to race an F1 car, having been stuck on the sidelines since winning the 2022 Formula 2 title. But they are also not Aston Martin's only options. As a current Mercedes engine customer, they also have access to their pool of reserve drivers including Valtteri Bottas, who has made himself available for all 24 F1 races this year in the hope that it might give him the chance to race and audition for a permanent 2026 seat elsewhere. Aston Martin won't want to rush Stroll and risk another recurrence down the line, nor do they want to rush into a decision over their Montreal driver line-up. "We wait to see what the next days are bringing and then we take a decision," said Krack.
