Former Red Bull Racing<\/a> CEO and team principal Christian Horner has announced a UK book tour this autumn to coincide with the release of his new memoir, Drive.<\/p>\n

The 52-year-old revealed the tour will provide fans with the rare opportunity to speak with him directly through live Q&A sessions where he can discuss his two-decade tenure at the Milton Keynes outfit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This autumn, I\u2019ll be heading out on a UK book tour to celebrate the publication of my memoir, Drive,” Horner wrote on LinkedIn.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019ll be reflecting on the defining moments of my career, the experiences from more than two decades in Formula One, and the highs and lows of leading a team at the very top of the sport. We\u2019ll also have a live Q&A, giving you the chance to ask your own questions and hear some of the stories from behind the scenes.\u00a0Every ticket includes a copy of Drive.”<\/p>\n

Horner spent 20 years at the helm of Red Bull Racing. Appointed ahead of the 2005 season following the energy drink giant’s acquisition of the Jaguar Formula 1 team, he became the youngest team boss in the history of the championship at just 31.<\/p>\n

Under his leadership, the team secured six constructors’ championships in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2022 and 2023, and eight drivers’ titles with Sebastian Vettel<\/a> (2010, 2011, 2012, 2013) and Max\u00a0Verstappen<\/a> (2021, 2022, 2023, 2024).<\/p>\n

However, his tenure came to an abrupt end on 9 July 2025 when he was replaced by former Racing Bulls<\/a> team chief Laurent Mekies.<\/p>\n

Since his exit, Horner has kept a relatively low profile, making only occasional appearances in the paddock and at other motorsport\u00a0events. But the release of Drive is his opportunity to share insights from behind the scenes.<\/p>\n

Tickets for the autumn dates are now on general sale.<\/p>\n
