Horner is looking for Hamilton to 'compromise' Rosberg to Red Bull's benefit of course!
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.ph ... up--hornerRed Bull Formula 1 team principal Christian Horner believes Lewis Hamilton would be "smart" to try to compromise title rival Nico Rosberg's race in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
If Hamilton wins at Yas Marina on Sunday, he needs Rosberg to finish fourth or lower to overturn the German's 12-point lead in the standings and win a fourth world championship.
Horner, whose Red Bull team is likely to be Mercedes' closest challenger, understands that means Hamilton needs drivers such as Max Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo to get ahead of Rosberg.
"First of all to my drivers I'd say just go for it because it's not our championship battle," Horner told reporters at a Red Bull media event on Wednesday.
"We could be Lewis's best friend on Sunday if we manage to get both cars ahead of Nico.
"There's no point Lewis being ahead by half a lap - if he's smart he's going to back the cars up so there is racing behind him because that's the only way the result will fall his way.
"Nico has got everything to lose.
