With Red Bull and Renault on the other hand, it hasn't been that long ago, and the vast majority of people working on it are the very same now.
It's like winning with a partner, then turning around immediately after and spit in their face.
Extremely unprofessional of Horner, but that simply doesn't surprise me anymore, not in the least. The faster F1 sees the back of Horner and his toxic ilk, the better.

It wouldn't matter if it was 5 years or 20, the entire structure of the engine program was changed both in physical architecture and most of management. Add in the change from being THE team to the guys getting engines and why should Red Bull care. They purchase a product and frankly that product has had as much time to develop as Ferrari and MB and by all reports Honda had caught Renault from behind. Why should they gush about Renault had done, they haven't done anything for years now. And did the interviewer really expect a how great things were response, it's a loaded question from someone looking to ***** about Red Bull like somehow that's a new idea.
