Christian Horner is seeking a return to Formula 1. Eight months after his departure from Red Bull Racing, the 52-year-old is working toward a comeback to the paddock.
The former Red Bull team principal, who oversaw six constructors' championships across two decades, left the team in July 2025 following a power struggle.
Horner has stated he will only return for a competitive opportunity and would prefer a partnership role rather than a standard employment position.
Alpine appears to be his most likely destination, with Horner reportedly part of a consortium in discussions with MSP Sports Capital.
But could Ferrari be a possibility? Despite Ferrari chairman John Elkann's public support of Fred Vasseur, speculation continues. Lewis Hamilton has described the rumours as distracting, while Charles Leclerc has expressed frustration with ongoing speculation around the team.
Former F1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya has suggested Ferrari should consider the Briton - but what do you think?
