Horner criticizes Russell as tensions rise with Verstappen after Qatar Grand Prix

Despite the penalty, Verstappen won the race, showcasing strong performance from the dirty side of the grid.

He suggested that Russell's actions contributed to the situation, describing it as a mix of gamesmanship and heightened tensions.
