She responded: "Well, forgive me for being this honest, but I have to say, Christian told me this has been the toughest year he has ever experienced.

On Twitter fans laughed at the timing, after one of the most controversial and exciting endings to an F1 season.

Clocky DMac wrote: "Poor Jenson Button having to endure an interview with the massively cringey Christian & Geri Horner."

North Villan quipped: "The biggest scandal in F1 history today. Sky said that Geri Horner was a singer/songwriter."

But Geri also has her fans. Dingers and Frogs said: "Absolutely unfair bringing Geri in for the interview when I’m trying to hate Christian Horner."
