Red Bull Removes Christian Horner, Senior Staff in Major Leadership Overhaul

News summary

Christian Horner was abruptly removed from his roles as Red Bull Racing team principal and CEO, a decision that came as a shock to him after more than 20 years leading the team. Red Bull GmbH confirmed his departure and appointed Laurent Mekies as his replacement. Horner addressed the team emotionally, expressing pride in their collective achievements and gratitude for their support throughout his tenure. Alongside Horner, several senior staff closely associated with him were also dismissed as part of a management overhaul by the parent company. Despite the sudden change, Horner will remain employed by Red Bull but on indefinite gardening leave, while his wife Geri Horner reportedly supports him amid the personal and public challenges following his exit. The reasons behind Horner's removal have not been publicly disclosed, though it follows a turbulent period including allegations of inappropriate behavior which he denied and was cleared of.
