“You know, my wife often tells me size doesn’t matter,” said Christian Horner last year when talking about front-wing changes for 2023. Before that, Christian Horner was seen saying, “You’ve got a problem. Change your F***ing car!”. However, this time around it’s Ms. Horner shockingly said something that revealed Horner’s true relationship with Toto Wolff despite the Red Bull TP’s brutal jab. What did Christian Horner’s wife say?
Toto Wolff and Christian Horner’s relationship just keeps on giving. The battle between the two TPs isn’t only limited to the track. It was recently brought to attention that Red Bull’s 2026 Engine Unit is producing 10HP less compared to expectations, whereas Mercedes is at the forefront of development. It was accredited as a win for Toto Wolff. However, Horner came out suggesting that Toto Wolff is a “customer” and isn’t directly involved in the Power Unit development, unlike Horner.

As the saga continues, Christian Horner’s wife, the Ginger Spice, Geri Halliwell, made an interesting revelation. In an Instagram reel from an event, Christian Horner is asked to sort out his bromance with Toto Wolff. The Red Bull TP savagely replied, “Toto needs to sort his f**king car out”. Halliwell then pitched in and said, “Can I tell you a secret? They actually love each other”
Horner’s wife probably made the statement in a sarcastic manner. However, just imagining the fact that Horner loves Wolff after all that has happened between the two seems unthinkable. The Red Bull TP recently suggested that he cannot be best mates with Toto Wolff despite respecting whatever the Mercedes TP has done for the team, as it’ll be dishonest to his team. Wolff has a different approach toward how he feels about Horner.

Toto Wolff and Christian Horner are the TP’s of the teams that have dominated F1 for the past decade and a half. However, the two have very different personalities. Horner is very direct and aggressive with his statements, whereas Wolff is a little subdued about the same. The Mercedes TP recently praised Max Verstappen and Red Bull for the kind of performance they’ve shown in 2023. However, he suggests that Horner is quite different from him yet successful.
According to SkySports.com, Toto Wolff said, “He’s a good team manager. But it’s a very different personality and very different values to what we have here in the organization. But he’s still successful.”
