Max Verstappen won four Formula 1 titles under Christian Horner
Christian Horner says Max Verstappen and his camp were "not responsible" for his exit from Red Bull in 2025.
The 52-year-old left his roles as team principal and chief executive last summer following months of team decline and internal disputes.
Jos Verstappen, Max's father, said Horner was "driving people apart" before his departure from Red Bull, while many suggested that Horner's exit was an attempt from Red Bull to convince Verstappen to sign a new deal.
Verstappen, who is contracted until 2028, only committed to racing for Red Bull in the 2026 season after Horner's exit.
