Christian Horner has found himself back in the spotlight, this time with a report linking him with a move to Aston Martin. However, will the former Red Bull Racing man join the Silverstone-based outfit? Here is what GPblog knows.
The 51-year-old was shown the exit from Red Bull in what was one of the numerous changes that have continued to shape the Milton Keynes team in recent months.
Horner, who was in charge, was first relieved of his duties as team principal before the Red Bull hierarchy confirmed he had also officially been removed from all of its other factory and engine manufacturing-related roles.
However, following his exit, the British motorsport chief has been linked with a swift return to Formula 1. More recently, journalist Joe Saward detailed the possibility of Horner joining the Aston Martin team. However, the British green outfit has now denied this rumour.
