they often have different ones across the season but horner comes in often because he plays ball and doesn't provide a boring minute of commentary

They usually select one per weekend, Otmar is a lot of the time on air, I think Günther as well

Horner keeps it real and succinct most of the time. I actually prefer hearing what he has to say instead of someone like Guenther.

As a general rule (see full rules), a standalone Discussion post should:
- be of interest to the sub in general, and not a specific userbase (e.g. new users, GP attendees, just yourself)
- be able to generate discussion (e.g. no yes/no or easily answerable questions)
- show reasonable input and effort from the OP
If not, be sure to look for the Daily Discussion, r/formula1's daily open question thread which is perfect for asking any and all questions about this sport.

He is not the only one, we often hear Seidl/Brown and Szafnauer too.

They talk to Otmar a lot throughout the weekend, too. I imagine they’re just the two principals that don’t mind the mid session interview.

I remember Otmar..Zac Brown also talking during the race

Remember that Red Bull is a marketing company that sells energy drinks. Some people like Horner and some people can’t stand him but like the old saying “there is no such thing as bad press”…

He’s not - mclaren and Aston Martin have been on it too

Because Toto gnashing his teeth for the larger part of the race is not very pleasant listening? /s

He just likes to talk
Horner and Red Bull ascribe to the philosophy of ‘any publicity is good publicity’ and Horner talking in front of an audience of millions is definitely publicity.
