Christian Horner is not opposed to dipping outside the Red Bull “pool of talent” to remedy its longstanding second seat woes.
Christian Horner is open to considering a driver outside of Red Bull’s talent pool to address their ongoing second-seat crisis. He emphasized that Yuki Tsunoda will have the remainder of the F1 season to prove he should partner Max Verstappen. Red Bull has faced challenges since Daniel Ricciardo’s departure in 2018, intensifying speculation on who they may turn to next. While Horner prefers internal options like Isack Hadjar and Liam Lawson, he is not opposed to seeking talent externally, as seen with the signing of Sergio Perez. The team aims to field the strongest lineup possible and is willing to explore all options for the future.
