Christian Horner Dismisses Ferrari Rumors, Seeks Ownership Stake for F1 Return

Christian Horner has addressed rumors regarding a potential move to Ferrari, stating he will not return to Formula 1 unless he has an ownership stake in a team. In a recent interview, he emphasized that he is not interested in returning as a hired team principal.

Horner, who previously led Red Bull Racing to significant success, clarified that his comments about Ferrari being a 'dream job' were taken out of context. He acknowledged Ferrari's prestige but pointed out that the team does not offer equity to team principals, which is a crucial factor for him.

Having spent two decades building Red Bull into a championship-winning team, Horner expressed contentment with his current situation and indicated that he would only consider a return to F1 for the right opportunity. He also took the chance to remark on rivalries in the sport, suggesting that competition is essential for excitement in Formula 1.
