\n The former F1 boss resides in a \u00a39.2m mansion with his Spice Girl wife Geri Halliwell Horner in the village of Marston Saint Lawrence in Northamptonshire near Banbury.\n<\/p>\n
\n Mr Horner was relieved of his Red Bull team principal role during the summer after 20 years of service, seeing him pocket a reported \u00a380m payout in the process.\n<\/p>\n
\n The 51-year-old had been team principal at Red Bull since 2005, overseeing eight drivers\u2019 world championships and six constructors\u2019 titles.\n<\/p>\n

\n There has been much speculation in the Formula One world about the veteran making a comeback to the sport.\n<\/p>\n
\n It has now been reported with tongue in cheek that Mr Horner has signed for a new F1 team following his months away from the paddock.\n<\/p>\n
\n A satirical article from BBC’s Top Gear informs that the 51-year-old has signed with “Bed Rull F1” and has a close relationship with driver, “Vax Merstappen”.\n<\/p>\n
\n The joke written by “Cory Spondent” adds: “Christian Horner is set to return to Formula One in 2026 with a new team called \u2018Bed Rull F1\u2019, TopGear.com understands.\n<\/p>\n
\n “And sources close to the ousted team principal claim he\u2019s already found a future world champion driver in the unheralded and entirely unknown \u2018Vax Merstappen\u2019.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Despite the comedy piece’s claims, Mr Horner remains without an F1 team after his split from Red Bull.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The former F1 boss resides in a \u00a39.2m mansion with his Spice Girl wife Geri Halliwell Horner in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":181272,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[1687,372,6537,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-181271","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-f1","tag-f1","tag-formula-1","tag-formula1","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181271","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=181271"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181271\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/181272"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=181271"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=181271"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=181271"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
