Christian Horner confirms talks with rival F1 teams
Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has confirmed receiving interest from rival F1 teams for signing talks, amidst his successful leadership at Red Bull with eight drivers’ titles and 124 race victories in his 20-year tenure.
Despite rumors of potential displacement due to lack of regular-race winning cars for Max Verstappen, Red Bull has strongly denied such claims and is planning to negotiate a contract with Horner until the end of the decade.
Recent speculations suggest Horner could attract interest from rival teams like Ferrari, as he confirms talks and enquiries from such teams while expressing loyalty to Red Bull.
With an internal restructuring challenge and pace disadvantage, Red Bull aims to close the gap with upgrades and hopes to challenge for race victories alongside championship leader Oscar Piastri.
Horner’s commitment to Red Bull remains unwavering, even amid changes to the team’s structure and the ongoing competition in the 2025 F1 season.
