Thing is, who says Horner is all that interested in bargaining with Max? Remember his reaction after Max threatened to leave if they got rid of Marko? Horner basically said 'If he wants to leave I'm not stopping him'. His ego is that big that he doesn't think he needs Max or Newey to still be successful. Maybe he's changed his mind about that now, but who knows.

And about Newey, apparently Horner's PA involved in the scandal was also Newey's PA. So it would be more personal to him. And I can imagine that he's getting sick of the power struggles going on.

The thing that annoys me most about Horner is how unapologetic he's been about everything. He doesn't care that the team is falling apart at the seams because he couldn't contain his sexual urges (as usual) and because he just had to try and get rid of Marko multiple times so that he can gain more power within RBR after Mateschitz died.

No, instead of being apologetic about the mess he's causing he doesn't back down an inch, doing his little PR pictures disgustingly flaunting his wife and the Thai owners to show everyone that he still has the backing he needs.

I can't blame anyone thinking about leaving that environment.

I don't really wanna see Max go to Merc as you said it would be an ick, but how does he stay with RBR. Does Horner leave, and they find a new team principle? I don't really know where does RBR go from here and it's a shame this is how they go down because Horner has a scandal on his hands...

Horner wouldn’t even have to leave, he would just have to stop alienating his whole team. Idk what he did to Newey but how tf do you fumble Newey? How do you sit there saying “no one is bigger than the team” when your team is being held together by paper and your star driver? How do you go and start a beef with the guy who founded the team with his best friend, whose son is major shareholder? Complete lunacy. All Horner has/had to do was stop running the team like his own bloody fiefdom, and it would have been fine.

If Max really does have an offer on the table for 150m a year, which probably includes equity, and an agreement that he can bring his engineers and his grandpa aka Helmut, there’s nothing Christian can do except hope the deal falls through. He’s not going to match that, he doesn’t have the power.

There’s always a chance that the offer is just hearsay, there’s always a chance that Max looks at the plans for 2026 and thinks Merc is still too much of a shitshow to risk it. But I don’t think Christian has any bargaining power left at this point.

I'm not sure why people have a hard time understanding that there's a difference between someone leaving a company willingly and someone being forced out, therefore standing behind that person because they've been standing behind you for over a decade...

I love max but like. what's he gonna do when helmut marko dies. is he going to also die in solidarity with him? what's the plan here

At this point I would find it kinda funny if Max, Helmut and Newey all left RBR, with Max taking GP with him and some of his mechanics like Genty, leaving Horner behind with a shell of a team.

Cause you know, apparently he doesn't need anyone besides 'me, myself and I'.

When all of the key figures of your team are unhappy and thinking about walking away, it might be time to re-evaluate your own behaviour and role within the team.

That's looking at you, MR. HORNER.

If you have a kid in the future, would you train him just like how your dad trained you to be a formula 1 driver?
