Speaking of Christian Horner, the trailer ends with him saying, “I’ve had something taken away from me that wasn’t my choice,” to wife Geri Halliwell. It then cuts to him in the Drive to Survive interview seat, where he says, “I think we’re done,” and gets up to walk away.
If you recall, it was announced mid-season last year that Christian would be leaving Red Bull after being the Team Principal and CEO for it’s entire run over the last 20 years.
Formula 1: Drive to Survive season eight debuts February 27th.
The 2026 Formula 1 season then begins a week later on March 6th in Australia!
