Red Bull team boss Christian Horner has offered some amusing insight into his younger years – before F1 – revealing he was dumped by his girlfriend after blowing his first £60,000 paycheck.
Christian Horner, one of the greatest team principals in F1 history, has achieved six constructors’ titles during his time at Red Bull. However, his transition into team management came after he ended his own racing career at Arden International. This decision proved fruitful when he received a £60,000 cheque, which he promptly used to purchase a new Porsche. Unfortunately, this choice did not sit well with his girlfriend and her disapproving mother, leading to their breakup. Despite this setback, Horner seems to have learned from his past mistakes and went on to marry Geri Halliwell, a member of the iconic British girl band ‘Spice Girls’, in 2015.
