'But Tom Jones? Tom Jones for f**k sake!'
Breaking out into the ‘Green Green Grass of Home’ after his Brazilian Grand Prix, Christian Horner says he has no “****ing idea” why a Tom Jones song would be one of Max Verstappen’s favourites.Verstappen won the Brazilian Grand Prix, his record-breaking 17th win for this season, after which Red Bull started playing Jones’ ‘Green Green Grass Of Home’ over his radio on his cooldown lap.
“But Jos told me in Qatar… what’s his favourite song, maybe Paul can play it? And he went ‘Green Green Grass’ by Tom Jones. So I was ‘can you play ‘Green Green Grass’ by Tom Jones?’ And he was like ‘what the ****?’ “This is, so Red Bull tell me, the favourite song of Jos Verstappen and a young Max when they were in the car going to and from their karting destinations in Italy,” he said.
“And when Max won the championship in Qatar, in the middle of the celebrations Jos insisted that they start singing the ‘Green Green Grass of Home’. So that’s where that came.
