Former Formula 1 team boss Guenther Steiner believes Red Bull is “better off” with Laurent Mekies leading the team instead of Christian Horner. Since Mekies took over, Red Bull has seen success with victories in Baku and Monza after a summer break. Mekies’ new approach has been praised for bringing harmony to the team after Horner’s departure. Horner, who was at the helm for 20 years, faced a contentious period and allegations before his departure. Steiner attributes the team’s recent success to Mekies’ calm leadership style and ability to restore harmony within the team. Horner’s ties to Red Bull were officially cut, and the team has seen improved results and internal dynamics under Mekies’ leadership.
