Horner says Red Bull exit may have reflected views on his influence

Christian Horner said his exit as Red Bull Formula 1 team principal may have stemmed from a view that he had too much influence over the team. He made the remark while reflecting on his departure last year.

Horner had been a central figure in Red Bull’s development into a front-running Formula 1 operation. During his tenure, the team enjoyed two periods of sustained success, including four consecutive drivers’ and constructors’ world championships with Sebastian Vettel.

Autosport also featured Horner discussing his Red Bull exit in an exclusive video interview, alongside other topics including the team’s rivalry with Mercedes.
