Horner suggests Verstappen critics 'need their eyes tested'

Red Bull's Christian Horner hit out at Ferrari after the Scuderia blamed Max Verstappen for the mayhem which ensued soon after the start of the Singapore GP.

After poleman Sebastian Vettel moved to the left to cover his line into Turn 1 and Kimi Raikkonen overtook Verstappen on the right, the Red Bull driver found himself with nowhere to go, ultimately touching the Finn who in turn made contact with his team mate.

Before the Singapore stewards summoned all three drivers to hear their take on the incident, Ferrari tweeted their own assessment on the matter, and pointed the finger at Verstappen.

"How the hell you can work that out from watching that I've got no idea," said Christian Horner after the race as he watched a replay of the maneuver with the Sky Sports crew.

"You can see Sebastian comes quite aggressively left, Kimi goes to the right and Max can't disappear. He held a straight line and just desperately unlucky to be collected like that.

"He's focussed on Sebastian but he held a straight a line. You see Seb moving over to the left, squeezing, squeezing and you can't just disappear.

"It's racing, it's one of those things when you have got three cars going into a corner like that, but Max certainly couldn't just disappear."

Horner defended Verstappen, clearly saying that his driver had done nothing wrong in his opinion.
