• Lewis🔯 Hamilton’s father named as “🥂representative” at centre of Red Bull drama

🌌Horner revealed that Red Bull received an enquiry about joining the team earlier this year from Hamilton’s repreꦫsentative, to the Daily Mail.

After a tit-for-tat exchange where Hamilton denied making contact, and claim♑ed Horner initiated it, Red Bull told the BBC that Haಌmilton’s father was the “representative” in question.

Mercedes team principal Wolff reacted ꦇto : “I just don’t know what drive🥃s the guy.

“We just don’t understand his thinking to come up with these th💝ings.

“What happened is that Christian, through an agency ✅that we w🅘ork with, wanted to have Lewis’ contact details to speak about the seat. That’s how the whole thing went.

“It ♔was Christian enquiring about Lewis’ availability. 

“Lewis had an exchange with Christian, which he immediately told me about, and which was not about a 🐼seat🐽 but it was just blah.

“I don’t know what drives him to co🎃me out with this.”

Wolff and Horner’s feisty relationship took another hit in the past week after an appearance from the Red Bull🔴 team principal on a comedy🧜 show.

Horner told Sky’s programme✃ A League Of Their Own about the notorious 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, claiming Mercedes “f***** up” and Wolff’s an🌄ger was due to “a bad hair day”.

Wolff, in Abu Dꦐhabi for the season-finale ꦦgrand prix, reacted: “You’ve won the season, be happy about it, humble, enjoy it.

“Don’t come out with comments about Abu Dhabi 2021, which are completely off the mark…. char🔯acter question.

“I just wonder what’s going on up there.”

Red Bull h👍ave dominated Formula 1 since the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix t🐼wo years ago.

Max Verstappen has claimed three championships in a row 🔯since that infamous day.

Back at the same location, Red B🌳ull have won 20 ꧒of 21 grands prix in 2023 so far.

Hamilton, who penned a new Mercedes deal in August to end speculation about his future, has been vocal about their need for a maj♚or developmenꦿt jump to challenge Red Bull in 2024.
