Former F1 driver Andre Lotterer says Red Bull boss Christian Horner’s criticism of Formula E is actually a “compliment”. But while Horner is right that Audi, BMW and Mercedes all headed for Formula E’s exit door, Porsche driver Lotterer says Horner’s criticism is “a compliment”. “It shows that Formula E is indirectly important to him,” said the German. “If it didn’t work, Formula E wouldn’t be here,” Lotterer insisted. But it’s on the issue of driver quality that Lotterer thinks actually puts Formula E ahead of the pinnacle of motorsport. A few drivers would have no place in Formula 1 without their (commercial) package.”.
