On August 13, Christian Horner's employment as a director of Red Bull Racing was formally terminated.
The 51-year-old's time with the six-time F1 constructors' champions is now over, according to Companies House, the UK registrar of companies that is in charge of incorporating and dissolving limited entities and keeping a public register of company information. The Briton was relieved of his responsibilities as team principal on July 9, just days after the 2025 British Grand Prix. Realistically, it was only a matter of time until the two parties came to an agreement and Horner left the stage because he had been originally transferred to other projects within the corporation, away from the spotlight and the scrutiny that came with it. Horner was the only manager the Milton Keynes team had known until Laurent Mekies took over.
