Christian Horner recently found himself in a precarious situation for several reasons. The world of the Red Bull team was thrown into chaos as he deals with multiple issues. On one hand, he needs to address allegations of misconduct, while on the other hand, he is desperately trying to maintain harmony within the team.
Amidst all the tensions plaguing Red Bull, rumors linking Horner to Mercedes have emerged. In an effort to alleviate the ongoing tensions, Horner had a meeting with the 26-year-old driver’s manager, Max Verstappen. According to a source, the meeting took place in Dubai on Monday and aimed to resolve the conflicts. Fortunately, the discussions were successful.
Although some key figures from Red Bull were present during the meeting, Max Verstappen and his father, Jos Verstappen, did not attend. Instead, they were represented by Verstappen’s long-time manager.
While Horner strives to maintain peace within Red Bull, it is becoming increasingly challenging for him to handle everything, especially considering the current situation he finds himself in. The internet is filled with various rumors, turning Red Bull into a captivating soap opera.
However, while these ongoing issues may provide entertainment for neutral fans, they have severely damaged the reputation of both the Red Bull Formula 1 team and the entire Austria-based Red Bull group. The coming weeks or months may bring more misery to their doorstep.
Considering all that has been discussed, it is inevitable that the ongoing saga will reach a breaking point. Christian Horner may choose to leave the team or other prominent members may decide to depart if he continues in his current position.
