Formula 1, Sportrik Media - Christian Horner has received strong backing from FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem regarding a potential return to the Formula 1 paddock after nearly a year away.
The former Red Bull Racing team principal departed after a 20-year tenure that delivered eight drivers’ championships through Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstappen, along with six constructors’ titles.
Since his departure, Horner has been linked with a potential return, including speculation surrounding Alpine, although no official move has materialised.
From a governance and competitive standpoint, figures like Horner are viewed as strategically valuable due to their expertise in team management, technical structure development, and contribution to the competitive landscape of Formula 1.
“You cannot remove Christian Horner’s name from motorsport and Formula 1. We miss him in this sport, and I do personally,” Ben Sulayem said.
“Someone with that kind of record will always find a way back. When he returns, it will feel like he just went on vacation.”
Ben Sulayem emphasised that Horner’s track record remains a key factor in any potential comeback, despite the circumstances surrounding his departure from Red Bull.
A return for Horner could have significant implications for the balance of power within the paddock, given his experience and influence. His next move will remain a key point of interest as the season progresses.
