Red Bull has advised McLaren to focus on upping its game rather than taking the reigning world champions to court.
A bitter spat has broken out between the British-based teams over a highly-rated aerodynamicist called Dan Fallows, who was recently due to start work at McLaren.
But Fallows ultimately decided to return to Red Bull with a promotion, triggering a furious rebuke by McLaren supremo Ron Dennis.
In Shanghai, Dennis accused Red Bull of having “induced” Fallows to breach his contract.
. . . and Horny should stop cheating.
