Ferrari F1 boss responds to Christian Horner rumours: ‘He’s looking for a job!’
Horner, a year on from being sacked by Red Bull, has voiced his interest in the Scuderia outfit
Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur has dismissed reports linking former Red Bull boss Christian Horner to a potential move to the Italian team, stating that Horner is merely "looking for a job." Horner, who was sacked by Red Bull last summer, has previously declared a move to Ferrari as his "dream" and the only team he'd join without any ownership stake. In a recent interview, Horner expressed his desire to join Ferrari, describing it as the "biggest brand in Formula 1" and his "dream."
Meanwhile, Ferrari has had a disappointing Azerbaijan Grand Prix weekend, with Charles Leclerc struggling for pace and finishing fourth, while Lewis Hamilton started and finished the race in sixth. Despite being second in the constructors' championship, Ferrari has only secured two victories all year. Vasseur acknowledged the need for improvement but dismissed questions about Horner, stating that the media's constant focus on the rumors was frustrating.
He emphasized that Ferrari is fighting for second place in the championship, and he is focused on motivating the team to perform better.
