"It's not personal in any way,” Horner told Sky about his rivalry with𒉰 Wolff.

"Toto is Toto. He's done a phenomenal job with Mercedes. He's obviously come into the sport from a very di🌃fferent background to me,꧙ he's very much from a financial background.

"And it is very easy to pull his chain, and you can see it.&nbs🤡p;

“So💫metimes it affects him. So of course when you're competing, and last year was so intense and of course it was the first time he'd ever been in that situation, it's always interesting to see how people react.

"Wh🌌en they're smashing headphones, you can see that you got to them."

"I'm f꧟ocused oไn what I'm doing, you guys are the judge and jury. 

“I'm focused on whᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚat I'm doing and he's focused on what he's doing."
