The heated rivalry of Christian Horner with Zak Brown has taken another turn, since it has come to light that the Drive To Survive series of Netflix has had to erase a strong expletive directed towards the director of the McLaren team of the program.
The director of the Red Bull team, Horner, was in the center of a storm at the beginning of the Formula one campaign of 2024 after it was investigated for alleged 'coercive behavior' towards an unidentified employee.
The accusations against the 51 -year -old man were dismissed. However, ahead of the Bahrain Grand Prix, a treasure of texts and photographs, supposedly between Horner and a colleague, filtered to influential figures and journalists within the sport.
The scandal shook the rest of the Carreras Paddock and the next seventh season of Drive To Survive, which is launched on March 7, transmits the impact of the events on the head of Red Bull.
Despite having the full support of the hierarchy around him in the Austrian racing team, Horner was still subject to many criticisms of rival teams, including McLaren and the director of the Brown team.
In a clip that has emerged before the first episode of the famous documentary series of Formula One, Horner can be heard by calling his rival Brown a 'P ****'. However, The Times now informs that the original edition showed it using the much stronger improper of '****'.

McLaren's head, Brown was one of Horner's most vowel critics after the revelation of the accusations against him, who since then have been cleared.
It is still believed that the reason for such elimination is unknown, but the clip is expected to overlap to maintain the reputation of the organization.
The episode one of the Netflix series exposes the tense relationship between Horner and Brown after the pump escape, which remains anonymous, in which the appeal of the employee against the initial investigation was dismissed in August.
Later that month, Horner said he was “relieved” that there had been a formal conclusion about accusations of inappropriate behavior against him.
In a clip it circulated before the premiere of season seven on March 7, Horner began to address the tumultuous beginning of his 2024 and the pump escape stressed: 'The higher it rises, the knives the knives.
“I have reached the top of my game and I never thought that in a million years I would have a challenge like this in my career,” Horner continued.
'It is a crucial era of the year, in a work that I do, you are the front face of the organization. You can hide or can leave and face it.
In another clip, Brown made immediate comments of the escape when a greater scrutiny in internal research that had cleared Horner in February 2024 was placed.
McLaren's head said that he advocated that sports owners and organizers “make sure that all racing teams and staff and pilots and all others involved in sports operate in a way that we all live.”

While there was a scandal outside the track for Red Bull during most of the first weeks, they flew.
The rumors of a possible game of Max Verstappen, who never noticed, did not interrupt the Dutch pilot who won seven of the first 10 races of the season on his way to a fourth title of the World Championship of the Polilizers Championship.
However, the star designer and technical director Adrian Newey announced a surprise deviation from Red Bull last year after the controversy.
The 65 -year -old announced his resignation in May, calling at the time of almost twenty years of designing the winning cars of the team championship.
Later, Newey joined the F1 rivals Aston Martin, with Mail Sport informing exclusively about its contract of £ 20 million a year in September.
