Horner was asked for an update on the teams’ progress with Liberty Media during the off-season:

We’ve had quite a few conversations with Liberty we had one major meeting. A lot of what they’re looking at doing for the future is quite exciting and there’s no shortage of venues that want to host races, there’s a lot of interest in the sport you see how the numbers are growing particularly on the digital platforms and the viewing figures being up for last year, live attendance being up and you just feel that if we can just keep improving the show and have a great championship if there was to be a three-way battle this year it would be fantastic for all the fans and ultimately them.

Obviously there’s an awful lot of focus with Liberty at the moment as to what is the vision for 2021. What are the technical regulations what are the financial regulations what is the financial distribution that they’re looking at. So there’s some big ticket items that they need to deal with during the first few months of this year.
