McLaren continue to insist that Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri are given equal opportunity, but their Singapore Sprint collision has reignited one of the biggest F1 questions: can a Formula 1 team really win consistently with two genuine number-one drivers? Horner has lived through it before. Vettel and Webber clashed repeatedly during Red Bull’s championship years, from their 2010 Turkey collision to the infamous Multi-21 controversy in Malaysia in 2013. 🔥 HORNER’S F1 WARNING Horner says his experience taught him that having two drivers “going at each other’s throats” is not a productive way to fight the opposition unless the team has a huge car advantage.
