Former Red Bull chief Horner Reportedly Reaching Out to Various F1 Team Owners
Ex-Red Bull team boss Christian Horner is reportedly "getting in touch with most team bosses" as he attempts a re-entry to grand prix racing, as stated by Aston Martin F1 chief executive officer Andy Cowell.
The British racing team is included in the teams that are connected to the ex-boss.
Cowell stated he had checked the situation with team owner Lawrence Stroll this past Friday at the Singapore GP.
"It appears that Christian is getting in touch with most team bosses at the moment," stated the executive.
"I can clearly say there are no arrangements for the involvement of Christian in an operational or investment role in the future."
Other Teams Comment
The US-based squad team principal Ayao Komatsu revealed that the ex-chief had "contacted" the American squad but continued: "No progress has been made. It is finished."
The Renault-owned team top official Steve Nielsen revealed the organization's advisor and de facto boss Flavio Briatore was "long-standing acquaintances" with the ex-boss.
Nielsen continued: "I'm unaware what they talk about. Everything I know is there are no arrangements for Christian to join Alpine but that isn't to say it won't happen."
The historic British team team principal James Vowles declared that the former Red Bull leader had not contacted them.
"We're content with the organization we have and it's working," the Williams boss said. "I see no justification to change from that."
Previous Developments
Horner is able to come back F1 by the middle of next year after finalising a separation agreement with the energy drink company on 22 September.
The fifty-one-year-old was fired as the team's leader after the British Grand Prix in July.
Several informants at Red Bull have indicated the agreement deal was valued at 60 million euros (£52m).
