Netflix vise le retour de Christian Horner dans le paddock F1

Après ses réflexions sur un limogeage choc chez Red Bull en 2025 dans la saison 8 de Drive to Survive de Netflix, l'ancien team principal Christian Horner est lié à un retour en Formule 1. Les rapports indiquent que la série le veut de retour pour des intrigues dramatiques, tandis que l'ex-pilote Juan Pablo Montoya soutient un possible transfert chez Alpine.

Horner a été limogé en pleine saison en juillet 2025 et totalement relevé de ses fonctions en septembre, Laurent Mekies prenant la relève pour mener Max Verstappen à la deuxième place du championnat des pilotes. Le média italien Corriere della Sera rapporte que Netflix espère le retour de Horner dans le paddock F1, valorisant les récits qu'il a générés chez Red Bull. Drive to Survive, lancé en 2019 pour couvrir 2018, a mis en lumière son rôle dans des événements comme le transfert de Daniel Ricciardo chez Renault, sa rivalité avec Toto Wolff et la victoire du titre de Verstappen en 2021 face à Lewis Hamilton. Pour 2026, les liens avec Ferrari, Haas et Cadillac ont été démentis, mais Aston Martin (retrouvant Adrian Newey et Honda) et surtout Alpine –avec des liens au patron Flavio Briatore– sont en lice. Montoya a qualifié un lien Horner-Alpine de 'very cool', affirmant qu'il 'ferait des merveilles'. Horner a également exprimé son intérêt pour racheter la participation d'Otro Capital dans Alpine, soutenue par Ryan Reynolds, Anthony Joshua et Trent Alexander-Arnold.
