Former team principal was sacked in July
-
Can return to F1 next season
Christian Horner has officially left Red Bull after agreeing what is understood to be a multimillion pound settlement. The former team principal was relieved of “operational duties” by Red Bull GmbH, the energy drinks’ parent company, after July’s British Grand Prix. His contract was due to run until 2030 and the 51-year-old is free to return to the sport, potentially as soon as next year.
Red Bull did not confirm the nature of any financial settlement although reports suggested figures varying from £52m to more than £80m.
