Horner has overseen eight drivers’ titles and six constructors’ championships as team principal but was booed at the recent F1 launch.
McLaren boss Zak Brown believes Red Bull team principal Christian Horner may be feeling "vulnerable" due to recent events including accusations of inappropriate behaviour, key staff departures, and perceived strained relationships within the team. Brown cites Horner being booed at the F1 launch and the presence of Red Bull GmbH management as additional pressure points. He also expresses confidence in McLaren's drivers, particularly Lando Norris, and the team's potential to win races.
