Max Verstappen, Christian Horner
Digest more
Toto Wolff has denied that his “teasing” of a move for Max Verstappen for the F1 2026 season contributed to Red Bull’s decision to sack Christian Horner. And he was quipped that he will be “really in the s**t” if Horner’s next move sees him join F1’s governing body, the FIA.
Max Verstappen won the first Formula One race staged following Christian Horner’s dismissal as Red Bull team principal in Saturday’s sprint race in Belgium. Eighteen days after Horner was told his two-decade reign was over, Verstappen claimed the Red Bull’s first win of any sort since he raced to victory in Imola on May 18.
