Nico Rosberg believes Red Bull team principal Christian Horner is trying to apply pressure to rival and Mercedes boss Toto Wolff.
team RB, Horner said it would be “foolish” for his team not to consider attempting to sign Russell when his contract with Mercedes expires at the end of 2025.
"And we're not afraid to go out of the pool. You know, George Russell is out of contract at the end of next year. It would be foolish not to take that into consideration. There are other talented drivers that could well be out of contract as well.” "I think he is always stirring sh*t up, it is part of the game," Wolff responded."George is a Mercedes driver and has been forever and hopefully will be forever. We have a long contract with him."Speaking as a guest on the Sky Sports F1 podcast, 2016 world champion Rosberg said Horner’s comments are an attempt to put pressure on his rival Wolff.
“Christian could be really naughty and just try and snatch him away from there and try and lock him in through contract already now.
