Christian Horner has been involved in shock signing talks with rival Formula 1 team Ferrari, according to reports from German media.

GPFans has contacted Ferrari for a statement on these reports, but neither Ferrari or Horner have themselves confirmed potential talks.

However, GPFans understand that Horner’s position in the team is secure and that there are no plans to replace him having already decided to agree to a contract that is set to run until the end of the decade.

Could Ferrari’s management shift?

Aside from a sprint race victory in China, Ferrari have only stood on the podium in two races both of which were achieved by Charles Leclerc in Monaco and Saudi Arabia.

Ferrari and their team principal Fred Vasseur will be hoping that the FIA’s technical directive in Spain, and their subsequent upgrades, will propel them back into the top end of the field.
