Christian Horner has been fired by Red Bull's Formula 1 team and it only adds to speculation about the future of four-time champion Max Verstappen.

Horner's 20-year tenure ends amid internal turmoil, on-track struggles and shifting power dynamics at Red Bull Racing

Horner's departure comes after Verstappen qualified on pole for the British Grand Prix despite a car that he fought all weekend. Verstappen was passed for the lead by Oscar Piastri early in the race and spun from second on a wet restart before coming back to finish fifth.
