Adrian Newey and Christian Horner longtime figures at Red Bull may have a contractual connection that could impact the team if Horner leaves. Speculation suggests there might be an undisclosed clause tying their fates together allowing one to depart if the other does.

Recent investigations into accusations of Horner ‘inappropriate behavior’ are ongoing and if he exits the team, there’s speculation that Newey could follow suit. The rumored connection adds an interesting dynamic to the situation.

Horner contract extends to at least 2026 while Newey’s long term deal lacks a specified duration. Red Bull is set to unveil its 2024 car on February 15 shortly before pre-season testing begins aiming to continue their dominant form from the previous season.
