Horner was dismissed as Red Bull Racing CEO and Team Principal on July 9th, 2025, and had formally resigned from all his positions within the Red Bull Group by August 13th, 2025.

For Red Bull Racing, Horner received this "compensation for loss of office" of £33.494 million GBP, as well as normal remuneration up until the point of his exit of £4.441 million GBP.
For Red Bull Technologies, under the same "compensation for loss of office", Horner received £66.988 million GBP. In respect of the remuneration of the "highest paid director", this figure was £9.029 million GBP.
It brings Horner's total compensation for loss of office to £100.482 million.
He was also serving as a director for Red Bull Powertrains (RBPT) and Red Bull Advanced Technologies (RBAT), but both of these companies returns state that the directors' remuneration for the year "was paid by other Red Bull Group undertakings."
Horner is currently seeking a return to grand prix racing, having served a period of gardening leave after his exit.
