Horner was relieved of his duties as Red Bull F1 CEO on Wednesday in a shock announcement. The 51-year-old won six constructors’ and eight drivers’ titles with the team but fell out with sections of senior management towards the end of his tenure.

Christian Horner’s axing from Red Bull Racing could see the 51-year-old receive a healthy settlement. With more than five years to run on his existing contract, it’s estimated Horner could pocket a pay-out worth more than £50 million.
