Christian Horner plays down reported Ferrari links

Christian Horner played down reported Ferrari links as Motorsport.com said the former Red Bull boss is in no rush to return to Formula 1.

Christian Horner has played down reported links with Ferrari, with no move confirmed. Motorsport.com reported that the former Red Bull Racing CEO and team principal said he is in no rush to return to Formula 1 and could accept not working in the paddock again after leaving Red Bull.

The same outlet reported that Horner was removed from his Red Bull role in July 2025, ending a 20-year spell in charge. Red Bull has raced in Formula 1 since 2005 and has won 130 Grands Prix and six constructors’ titles.

Any Ferrari move remains unconfirmed. Ferrari is Formula 1’s longest-running constructor, competing across 77 seasons from 1950 to 2026, with 250 race wins and 16 constructors’ championships.
