Motorsport.com reported that Christian Horner disclosed that he experienced panic attacks during his Formula 1 career. Based on the supplied material, that remains a reported account rather than a claim independently confirmed here, as no primary-source interview, direct quotes or dated remarks were included.

The source summary linked the reported disclosure to the pressure involved in running a Formula 1 team across two decades. Horner has been one of the sport’s most prominent team principals during Red Bull’s years near the front of the grid, which gives the reported account broader relevance inside Formula 1.

Beyond that report, the supplied sources do not establish when Horner is said to have made the remarks, where he said them, or any further detail about duration, treatment or specific episodes. Without primary-source material in the source set, those points remain unconfirmed.
