Christian Horner Announces UK Book Tour for 'Drive' After Red Bull Exit

Christian Horner is back in the spotlight, but this time in a different capacity. The former Red Bull Racing team principal has announced a UK book tour this autumn to coincide with the release of his memoir, Drive.

In a LinkedIn post, Horner revealed the tour will offer fans a rare chance to engage with him directly through live Q&A sessions. He plans to reflect on his two-decade stint at the Milton Keynes squad, covering the defining moments of his career and the challenges of leading a team at the pinnacle of motorsport.

"This autumn, I’ll be heading out on a UK book tour to celebrate the publication of my memoir, Drive," Horner wrote. "I’ll be reflecting on the defining moments of my career, the experiences from more than two decades in Formula One, and the highs and lows of leading a team at the very top of the sport. We’ll also have a live Q&A, giving you the chance to ask your own questions and hear some of the stories from behind the scenes. Every ticket includes a copy of Drive."

Horner spent 20 years at the helm of Red Bull Racing. Appointed ahead of the 2005 season after the energy drink giant acquired Jaguar's F1 team, he became the youngest team principal in championship history at just 31.

Under his leadership, the team secured six constructors' titles (2010-2013, 2022, 2023) and eight drivers' championships with Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstappen. However, his tenure ended abruptly on 9 July 2025, when he was replaced by Laurent Mekies.

Since his exit, Horner has kept a relatively low profile. This book tour is his opportunity to share behind-the-scenes insights. Tickets for the autumn dates are now on general sale.
