Horner to Gasly: You shouldn't be fighting McLaren, Alfa

BUDAPEST, Hungary -- Red Bull boss Christian Horner said it is vital Pierre Gasly uses Formula One's upcoming summer break to get his head in the right place in order to rectify his woeful form when racing resumes.

Gasly endured another horrible weekend at the Hungarian Grand Prix, where he finished sixth behind McLaren's Carlos Sainz on an afternoon teammate Max Verstappen diced with Lewis Hamilton for victory. After 11 races of 21 this year Gasly has just 63 points to Verstappen's 181 -- to put that into stark perspective, Verstappen surpassed Gasly's current tally at the Spanish Grand Prix in May.
