Christian Horner: Red Bull not getting money's worth from Renault

SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS, Belgium -- After witnessing Max Verstappen suffer another engine failure at the Belgian Grand Prix, Red Bull boss Christian Horner issued a message to Renault: "Get your act together".

Though Daniel Ricciardo scored Red Bull an unlikely podium at the Belgian Grand Prix, it was a bittersweet result for the team after Verstappen stopped after just eight laps with engine trouble. Four of Verstappen's six retirements this season have been mechanical, with the Dutchman claiming after his most recent that he is rivalling McLaren-Honda's Fernando Alonso for bad luck this season.

Horner cut an irritated figure at his post-race media session and he used the opportunity to make it clear Red Bull expects better from its engine partner.
