Without being rude I just think Horner talks a lot of garbage, he said to channel 4 that Max had just set 2 fastest sectors, when Max hadn't even completed sector 1 before the red flag.
It says the same in this article,

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner understood Verstappen’s frustration, having seen his driver go purple in Sector 1 and Sector 2 on his final attempt at pole.
“It was frustrating but it’s the same for everybody, they didn’t get that second lap in,” he said.
“But at least at this circuit you can overtake. Max’s frustration…I think he knew having gone purple in Sector 1, Sector 2 that there was a better lap in there. It looked like he would pick up a tow from [Fernando] Alonso there at the end of the lap as well.
“But we will never know now.”
