Christian Horner insists he is not the reason for Adrian Newey's decision to leave Red Bull and says the pair 'remain friends'. Newey's exit comes with Red Bull on a historically dominant streak, with Max Verstappen chasing a fourth successive drivers' title and the team a third successive constructors' title this year.
'I think if you speak with Adrian and look at the statements that he's put out, Adrian's decided that the timing for him is now, after pretty much 35 years with the team, and the strength and the engineering depth that we have, to step away,' said Horner. 'We knew that the time was coming and we've built a structure in place to be able to pick up the baton and carry on with it. That's something that's been put in place over the last five or six years.
