Red Bull team boss Christian Horner has made a major revelation regarding the team’s ownership and its steadfast independence since entering Formula 1.

Red Bull’s Journey in F1: A Unique Commitment

Since acquiring the Jaguar F1 team from Ford in 2005, Red Bull has transformed into a dominant force on the grid. While many teams have sought external investment to sustain their operations, Horner confirmed that Red Bull has never considered such a move.

Formula 1 is an expensive sport, where even manufacturer-backed teams such as Mercedes and Alpine have sold stakes to external investors. Audi, for example, recently sold a minority stake in its F1 project to the Qatar Investment Authority. However, Red Bull has remained fully committed to self-funding its operations.

“Regarding Red Bull’s position on outside investment, it’s never been discussed since Red Bull joined Formula 1,” Horner stated.

Red Bull’s Growing Commitment to Formula 1

Instead of scaling back, Red Bull has doubled down on its commitment. The team is set to launch its own power unit operation in 2026, collaborating with Ford under the Red Bull Ford Powertrains banner. This move underscores the brand’s long-term vision in the sport.

Horner emphasized Red Bull’s broader involvement in F1 beyond just racing:

“I think the commitment to Formula 1 has never been stronger, particularly with the engine project, and all that Red Bull puts in globally into Formula 1 with the grand prix and the amount of promotion it commits to the sport.”

Red Bull Racing: A Powerhouse Built to Stay

With Formula 1 experiencing commercial success, the valuation of Red Bull’s teams has skyrocketed. In addition to Red Bull Racing, the brand also operates VCARB, further solidifying its presence in the sport.

Unlike its rivals, Red Bull has remained independent, reaping the rewards of its two-decade-long investment in F1. The Austrian giant’s unwavering support of its racing program indicates that Red Bull Racing is here to stay—stronger than ever.
