Christian Horner will be missing for the first time in the Red Bull Box during the Formula 1 weekend in Belgium (including live on free TV at RTL). It is not yet clear how this affects the racing team from the long -time team boss. In the executive floor, however, there is a great concern in this regard.
Red Bull without Christian Horner? That was actually unthinkable for over two decades. However, this condition has been a reality for a few weeks. In Belgium, the Brit will not be sitting at the RB command stand for the first time in a Formula 1 race. It remains to be seen how or whether this affects the perfomance.
According to the Italian edition of “Motorsport.com”, the sporting development without Horner hardly worries those responsible. Fear is much greater, above all before a mass migration of employees.
What’s next for Red Bull without Horner?
According to the report, this could lead to this, should Horner hire at another racing team. Then, such a possible scenario, he could remove numerous top people from Red Bull. His chances would probably not be bad either, because the team boss was very popular within the Red Bull staff. It was not quite by chance that many tears flowed in Milton Keynes when he announced his farewell.
“Some say very difficult times for the team beforehand, others are convinced that it will implode,” writes “Motorsport.com” about the Red Bull future without Horner. Others are firmly convinced that Horner heritage Laurent Mekies is exactly the right man for the job. However, all of this assessment is not much more than a look at the famous glass ball.
It is undisputed that Horner’s and Mekies’ arrival will influence the atmosphere in the team. But above all, it is important for the top red Bull bosses that the mood of Max Verstappen improves. The Dutchman enjoys absolute exceptional status in the team and still has to be convinced that Red Bull will continue to be the best address for him in the future. It would have become difficult with Horner. Without him, the chances of the racing team are said to be much better.
