Who’s Sky germany gonna interview all the time now?
I’m guessing that without horner there his nebulous value was called into question?
I thought Horner and Marko belonged to different factions within the Red Bull power struggle?
The rumour spread by Dutch media (so the Verstappen camp) is that Marko overstepped his competences after Horner left, thinking he had strengthened his position. If that happened, it could have angered Red Bull CEO Mintzlaff and/or the Red Bull owners.
Has any reason been given? Given that he’s 82 I’m assuming he’s retiring, but I wouldn’t put it past Lawrence Stroll to offer him a private yacht full of cash…
Quote from Marko:
Narrowly missing out on the world championship this season has moved me deeply and made it clear to me that now is the right moment for me personally to end this very long, intense, and successful chapter.

Thanks, though I don’t feel I’ve gained any more into!
Marko has a contract for 2026. Right now no one is confirming this Sky reporting, but if Marko is actually leaving then surely it is coming from up high. It could be Oliver Mintzlaff trying to create a new team at RBR, given how much has changed already.
