Christian Horner is still under contract with Red Bull, but a complete split is only a matter of time. And that will release Horner to finally move elsewhere in F1, should he wish to do so
Christian Horner remains under contract with Red Bull despite stepping down from his duties in the Formula 1 team. A complete separation seems inevitable, paving the way for Horner to explore new opportunities in the F1 world if he desires greater control.
Although previously rejecting a role at Ferrari to stay loyal to Red Bull, Horner’s sudden departure opens up possibilities for him to venture into other F1 projects. Horner is currently taking a break after facing personal and professional challenges, but his vast experience makes him an attractive option for teams seeking leadership changes.
While Ferrari has shown no interest in hiring Horner, the team is facing pressure regarding their current principal’s performance, potentially opening a window for Horner in the future. If he were to consider a role at Ferrari or Renault’s Alpine F1 team, assurances of significant control would likely be a key factor in his decision-making process.
