Horner Calls on Everyone: Seeks Return to F1 After Red Bull Exit

Christian Horner Seeks His Return to Formula 1

Former Red Bull boss Christian Horner is actively exploring his return to Formula 1, according to sources close to the situation. Andy Cowell, head of the Aston Martin team, revealed that Horner has been in contact with several team owners. Horner, who was fired from Red Bull in July, reached a $100 million agreement with the team. It is rumored that his interest is not limited to a standard team principal position, but that he is seeking a stake in a team.

It seems Christian is calling almost all team owners right now.

Cowell confirmed that there are no plans for Horner to participate in Aston Martin, neither in an operational nor investment role.

Sources confirm that Horner met with a representative of Haas F1 owner Gene Haas through an intermediary. However, it was clarified that Haas has no intention of selling any stake in the team.

That’s all. It hasn’t gone any further. It’s over.

The popularity of Formula 1 has grown significantly, and most teams are valued at over a billion dollars. Horner, after ending his agreement with Red Bull, is now seeking partners to bid for teams, including Alpine, overseen by Flavio Briatore, a friend of Horner. Steve Nielsen, Alpine’s team principal, commented that there are no plans for Horner to join Alpine, although he did not rule out the possibility. Under Horner’s leadership, Red Bull won eight drivers’ championships and six constructors’.
