Alex Powell: What Does Christian Horner's Sacking Mean for Liam Lawson?

On Wednesday, Red Bull Racing dismissed Christian Horner after over 20 years, announcing his immediate departure from the team.
Mounting performance issues and tensions between Verstappen's camp and Horner over 18 months prompted Red Bull to dismiss Horner, risking Verstappen's potential departure amid a performance dip.
Verstappen's 64 wins, 116 podiums, 44 poles, and four consecutive titles highlight his legacy, while Red Bull now ranks fourth in the Constructors' standings, reflecting recent struggles.
Red Bull's leadership shifts, with Laurent Mekies as CEO and Alan Permane as Team Principal, take effect before the Belgian GP, impacting team direction amidst internal turbulence.
Red Bull's performance-based exit clause could trigger Verstappen's departure after the July 2025 Belgian Grand Prix if the team falls outside the top three in constructors' standings, impacting his future.
