Sebastian Vettel’s Return to Red Bull in Jeopardy Without Horner as Consultant
Sebastian Vettel, the four-time world champion, had his potential comeback to Red Bull Racing as a consultant thrown into uncertainty following Christian Horner’s sudden departure as team principal. The German driver, who enjoyed his most successful years with the Milton Keynes-based team, was rumored to be in line to succeed Helmut Marko in a senior advisory role within the Red Bull Racing setup.
Vettel had shown interest in the position, hinting at exploratory discussions regarding his involvement with the team. However, any hopes of a reunion have been dashed with Horner’s exit, leaving Vettel’s future with the team hanging in the balance. The abrupt change in leadership has effectively put a halt to any immediate plans for Vettel to rejoin the Red Bull Racing family.
Sources close to the situation have confirmed that Vettel will not be making a comeback to Red Bull Racing as initially speculated. With Horner out of the picture, the focus now shifts to the unresolved issue of Max Verstappen’s future within the team. The saga continues to unfold, with the next chapter in this gripping Formula 1 narrative yet to be written.
