The biggest Formula 1 shakeup in years is already getting people talking, and Red Bull boss Christian Horner can’t help but smile about it.
Lewis Hamilton in Ferrari red? Even Horner thinks it looks pretty good.
“I’ve seen some pictures, I think it suits him,” Horner said at the Autosport Awards. “Lewis Hamilton in a Ferrari, that really is box office.”
It’s a move that’s sent shockwaves through the racing world, with Hamilton trading his longtime Mercedes silver for Ferrari’s iconic red starting in 2025.
But Horner’s got more immediate concerns. His Red Bull team dominated last season with Max Verstappen, but the competition’s getting fiercer.
“You’re going to have four teams that are going to be very competitive,” he said. “I think it’s going to be very tight, and take your pick.”
The battle for F1 supremacy is shaping up to be intense. McLaren’s been making huge strides. Ferrari’s looking stronger than ever. And Mercedes? They’ve got something to prove after losing their star driver.
That’s three hungry teams gunning for Red Bull’s crown.
For fans, it’s shaping up to be what Horner calls “a stellar year.” The grid’s getting tighter, the rivalries are heating up, and now with Hamilton’s Ferrari move looming over everything, 2024 might just be the warmup for an even more dramatic 2025.
