This will backfire as if Horner leaves, so does Newey (will probably go to Ferrari and have Lewis win his 8th), and then everyone at RBR loses. Look at what happened when Ferrari forced Schumacher out. Last time they won a WDC/WCC was 16-17 years ago. Horner has managed two WDC drivers so far (Vettel, Max) so even if Max leaves, I'm sure some other talent will come by years from now. You get rid of someone who has managed the team from ground up (20 years) then you will never win anything again. The TP has to be able to pick his own successor.
You're right. Exactly this ^^. Great point about Schumacher and Ferrari. All of the media reports I've been able to find state, "inappropriate controlling behavior". Which is intentionally vague. You can bet if there was any substance to the allegations - such as being seen on Epstein's island, p3do stuff etc. the media would've reported it. Assuming the media isn't corrupt - which they are. Anyway, innocent until proven guilty IMO. Red Bull's loss will be Ferrari's gain.
