Renault used to supply their engines to the Austrian team for several seasons before parting ways in a dramatic showdown after the 2018 season. The popular Netflix documentary Drive to Survive specifically dealt with the dwindling relationship between Red Bull team boss Christian Horner and Abiteboul in its first season. The Austrian team switched to Honda as their engine supplier with an agreement that came to an end in 2021.
With major shake-ups in the paddock and restructuring regarding senior personnel, all teams are undergoing crucial changes that could impact the 2022 season significantly.
Christian Horner set to remain as Red Bull F1 team principal until at least 2026
Red Bull team boss Christian Horner is set to continue leading the team until at least 2026, as reported by Autosport. Horner retired from competitive racing at 25 and was appointed to head the team as the youngest team principal at the time in 2005.
Team advisor Helmut Marko, in an interview alongside Max Verstappen, spoke about Horner’s future with the team on ServusTV:
Horner brought the team absolute glory with four consecutive world championships with Sebastian Vettel. The Briton then went on to give Max Verstappen the right car to challenge seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton in taking his maiden championship victory.
