Christian Horner Ferrari ‘dream’ blasted as ‘embarrassing’ by Schumacher
Ferrari said it has full confidence in Fred Vasseur as speculation grew after Christian Horner called the team his dream job.
- In a recent interview with The Times, Christian Horner described the Ferrari team principal role as his "dream job," stating it is the only position he would accept without ownership shares.
- Horner has remained out of Formula 1 for more than a year following his exit from Red Bull after the 2025 British Grand Prix. His comments fueled speculation about his future ambitions.
- Former driver Ralf Schumacher slammed the 52-year-old for his "embarrassing" behavior, telling the German Sky Sports podcast Backstage Boxengasse that "currying favour like that is embarrassing enough in itself" and a "mark of incompetence."
- On Tuesday, Ferrari held a press conference with chief communications officer Mari Conti, who reiterated the team's "full confidence" in Fred Vasseur and insisted their leadership position remains clear and unchanged.
- Vasseur commented after the Azerbaijan Grand Prix that having 50 percent of media questions focused on rumors is "a bit of a frustrating situation." His frustration underscores the toll of external speculation on team operations.
