Christian Horner is not the only one who has left Red Bull today. He has been joined by two other senior management figures.
Christian Horner and two senior management figures have departed from Red Bull, marking the end of Horner’s 20-year tenure as team principal overseeing multiple championships.
Horner addressed the Red Bull factory personally after being informed of his immediate departure by the Red Bull board on Tuesday, reportedly breaking down in tears during the announcement.
Alongside Horner, Paul Smith, the director of communications and social media, and Oliver Hughes, the group chief marketing and commercial officer, have also left their roles at the team’s headquarters in Milton Keynes.
Smith, who was considered Horner’s right-hand man, played a significant role in navigating communication challenges faced by Horner during a previous controversy.
Hughes, who had been with Red Bull for over eight years, held various marketing positions before departing from his most recent role in June of the previous year.
