LONDON — The Alpine Formula 1 team confirmed Sunday that former Red Bull boss Christian Horner is among the interested parties in buying a minority stake in the team.
“It is no secret that Otro Capital has held preliminary talks to sell its stake in the team,” Alpine said in a released statement. “The team is regularly approached and contacted from potential investors, particularly given Otro Capital declared exploratory talks have taken place. One of those parties to express an interest is a group of investors, which also includes Christian Horner.”
Horner was fired by Red Bull last July, ending a 20-year stint that included eight F1 drivers’ titles but also more recent turmoil that rocked the team on and off the track.
Alpine, which finished last in the constructors’ standings during the 2025 season, has switched to Mercedes engines for a new era of F1 regulations this year. Official preseason testing starts Monday in Barcelona.
