An F1 insider has touched on a major worry at Red Bull concerning a ‘Christian Horner Racing’ team.
A major worry at Red Bull concerns a potential ‘Christian Horner Racing’ team, following Horner’s shock sacking from his team principal role in July 2025. Horner, the youngest F1 team principal upon entry in 2005, is currently exploring options to return to the sport. Rumors linked him to Alpine and discussions with Otro Capital and Mercedes for team stake acquisitions. Red Bull CEO Mintzlaff may have been against the idea of Horner leading a team, preferring a more corporate direction. The team is facing a transitional period post-Horner, with Lazenby suggesting a shift in company strategy and the need for change. Mintzlaff emphasized the need for a fresh start post-Horner, signaling a new chapter for Red Bull Racing in F1.
