Christian Horner Sues Red Bull Over… read more
Christian Horner has filed a lawsuit against Red Bull Racing, alleging unlawful dismissal and breach of contract following his sudden removal as Team Principal earlier this season.
The legal action, confirmed by Horner’s legal representatives early Tuesday, accuses Red Bull of mishandling internal investigations and violating the terms of his long-standing agreement with the team. Sources close to the case suggest that Horner is seeking substantial compensation and a formal public acknowledgment of what he calls a “wrongful and damaging decision.”
“This is about justice and protecting my reputation,” Horner stated in a brief but defiant statement. “After dedicating decades to Red Bull’s success, I will not allow my name to be tarnished by internal politics and rushed decisions.”
Horner, who led Red Bull to multiple Constructors’ and Drivers’ Championships, was a central figure in the team’s dominance alongside Max Verstappen. His unexpected exit sent shockwaves across the paddock, and this lawsuit only deepens the internal crisis facing the team.
Red Bull Racing has yet to issue an official response, but the case is expected to spark a high-profile legal battle that could expose internal power struggles and dramatically alter the future leadership structure of the reigning world champions.
