Christian Horner pokes fun at Renault after its double retirement in Bahrain

Red Bull's Christian Horner could not resist an opportunity to kick Renault while it was down after the French manufacturer suffered a cruel double retirement in the closing stages of the Bahrain Grand Prix.

Red Bull dropped Renault engines for Honda this year and kicked off its new partnership with a podium in Australia. It nearly scored another in Bahrain as Max Verstappen reeled in Charles Leclerc as he struggled with a Ferrari engine down on power.
