Villeneuve: Horner will be a valuable asset to any team
Jacques Villeneuve was pleased for Christian Horner, who received a substantial severance from Red Bull Racing that could reach US$100 million for the early termination of his contract. The 1997 world champion has no doubt that Horner will quickly find a new job.
Jacques Villeneuve: "Horner received a really large severance package. It's good that both sides are now free, have no obligations to each other and can move on. That's very good. Horner has been a valuable asset to Red Bull for many years, and now he will become a valuable asset to any leading team. Everyone knows he can win. I'm very curious where he'll end up next and in what role."
According to the British Daily Mail, Christian Horner's next workplace could be MotoGP. But the British figure would not be running a team like his former colleague Günther Steiner; he would head the entire series. However, this is still at the level of unconfirmed rumors.
