F1 heavyweight Christian Horner speaks after career came to crashing halt
Fans of Formula 1 – and there’s something like 76 million tuning in to watch grand prix weekends – are gearing up for another titanic battle on Monday morning.
This one will be fought out in Austin, Texas, in front of a record-breaking crowd.
Faced with much intrigue of why he was sacked, Christian Horner has stayed largely silent – until now. 60 Minutes
For 20 years he was the team principal of Red Bull, transforming the energy drinks company into a motor racing juggernaut.

Horner says Alpine offers no route back to Formula 1
Christian Horner says he would seriously consider the right opportunity to return to Formula 1, but does not currently see Alpine as the team that could provide it.

Horner played down that possibility when asked about his future by Sky.
If the right opportunity in a team existed, I'd certainly consider it seriously, he said. Right here, right now, I don't see that at Alpine.
He added that he was not pursuing a specific opening and was content to spend time away from the day-to-day demands of the championship.
