Im looking around for where Horner lands. Alpine? That would be something after that history.

Haas is doing much better with current leader but would they entertain him there maybe after this season?

What if Horner goes to Cadillac and brings in Danny Ric. Bring back the Honeybadger!

I’d hate to hate an American team, but I would.

Who is in the chain of command that made the call to fire him?

What kind of non-compete/golden parachute does he have to have at this point?
Seems like he’s more dangerous to Red Bull off the team than on it at this point.
He has got to know so much shite about them and their future plans.

What’s the drama with Alpine? Seems most likely spot after issues with Oliver Oakes this year.

Just seems like weird timing. Reports coming out that he had too many roles in the team and was unwilling to let anyone else take over any of them. Coming up on one of the biggest regulation changes ever, working with Ford to design their own engine, and now they fire the point man on all of it. Now if the engine sucks the next guy who had nothing to do with it will have to be the fall guy.

I believe this will be announced by summer break. Too much uncertainty at Red Bull right now I think.

So, who goes? To me, both current Mercedes drivers belong in F1.

Straight swap, Woody to Red Bull. Kimi is the future.

Yeah, it'll be interesting to see what this all looks like a few years down the road. There's two sides to every power struggle and I'm not convinced Red Bull picked the right horse, or that all the blame is on Horner. When Dietrich was alive, everyone seemed to be fine letting Horner do all the shite he was doing, but all of a sudden everything changed. Who are they really siding with? Helmut and Jos? Not sure that's the best path forward. Terrible timing too. Do this BEFORE all the other key figures leave.

If I was anyone other than McLaren or Merc I'd be on the phone with Horner right now.

I'm just here to say the RocketPoweredMohawk video "The Horndog Files" was uproarious hilarious.

Long overdue for another video. Hopefully this news will get him out of hiding.

Holy hell, can't believe he got fired. I'm not a RB or Hormer guy, but he did not deserve to be fired. Wow.

Vasseur is under fire at Ferrari. He may end up at Maranello..

Alpine is a toxic disaster, they've suffered from non-commitment from their higher-ups for years now whether or not they even want to participate in F1. They're already dropping their PU program and will run Ferrari units for 2026. I wouldn't be surprised if Alpine gets sold off to someone else within a few years time. They're a mess.

This could lead to Hadjar moving into Yuki’s seat shortly.

Alpine will be running Mercedes engines going forward. Wonder if there is truly any bad blood between Toto and Horner and if that would effect where he lands.

Oh yeah, I know they’re a mess in general.
