Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has hit out at the F1 Strategy Group and the current rule-making process, calling for changes to be made for the sake of the sport.
*The F1 Strategy Group is made up of the FIA, FOM, Ferrari, McLaren, Red Bull, Mercedes and Williams, who all have permanent seats. The final position is taken by the team which finished highest in the Constructors' Championship the previous season, and that seat is currently held by Force India.
Rule changes tend to be discussed and formulated at the Strategy Group, before being passed on to the F1 Commission, where the Strategy Group members, the remaining teams and selected sponsors and promoters have a seat. Rules that pass this stage are then sent to the World Motorsport Council for final approval.
However, Horner feels the teams should only be consulted on rule changes, rather than deciding on what is implemented.
"I believe that an input is fine and the teams obviously have an investment in the business, so there is no reason why things shouldn't be discussed amongst the key stakeholders and certain teams obviously are key stakeholders," Horner said.
