Reason for Christian Horner’s Red Bull sacking ‘revealed’
Christian Horner’s abrupt dismissal as Red Bull F1 team principal was driven by longstanding internal power struggles and behind-the-scenes tensions, particularly with Team Verstappen. This move, though causing shockwaves, had been anticipated by some F1 insiders due to simmering issues. The decision to part ways seems to have been hastened by upcoming contract deadlines and a desire to heed Max Verstappen’s desires. Allegations of misconduct and reputational damage from last season further deteriorated Horner’s position within the organization. With the team’s performance falling short and title hopes fading, Red Bull faces an uncertain future without Horner at the helm.
