It’s safe to say that 2022 will go down in Red Bull’s history as a special year. The Austrian outfit’s efforts and tenacity have finally paid off. And because it’s the off-season, the entire team may be spotted lounging around. Moreover, recently, after receiving recognition for outstanding results in the driver and the constructors’ championship, Team leader Christian Horner blew away his wife Geri Halliwell with a gladiator-like experience.

In the world of racing, the Red Bull team has unquestionably excelled. The Briton has led the group to five constructors’ titles. After he had achieved the pinnacle of his success, he met Geri Halliwell, the love of his life. Halliwell is a well-known singer from England who was formerly a member of the Spice Girls.

To give you a quick recap, As the Formula One teams are currently spending time with family members, Christian Horner accompanied his wife to the Red Bull garage to give her an experience that most of us would like to have at some point in our lives. Horner forced his better half to sit in the 2022 championship-winning vehicle. Sergio Perez’s automobile was seen to have Geri Halliwell seated in it. She immediately saw how low F1 drivers must sit to compete on the tracks as soon as she sat down in the car.

Halliwell remarked, “This is how low they’re doing it. Oh my God, this is absolutely incredible. Should be like that.”

Correcting her position of sitting Horner said, “A bit lower, darling.”

The excitement was visible on her face as soon as she asked, “What’s the speed?” To this Horner responded, “250 miles an hour.” This was a moment of truth for the former spice girl as she was shocked and quoted, “250 miles an hour. You are a gladiator. Oh, my God.”
