Red Bull Racing team principal and CEO Christian Horner is the current longest-serving leader in Formula 1. He has been in charge of the energy drink's racing team since its establishment in 2005.

The British executive has built the team from the ground up, transforming it into one of the most dominant forces in F1. Under his leadership, Red Bull Racing has clinched six World Constructors' Championships and seven World Drivers' Championships during two distinct periods of domination.

Their first period of success came in the early 2010s when German driver Sebastian Vettel and the team won four consecutive Drivers' and Constructors' titles in a row from 2010 to 2013.

Following a period of relative drought attributed to regulatory changes that allowed Mercedes to be the top team on the grid, Red Bull made a triumphant return to the top in the 2020s.

Dutch driver Max Verstappen claimed his maiden world title in 2021, while the team followed suit in 2022 and 2023 by clinching the Constructors' title while Verstappen retained his championship in those years.

With a successful career as the leader of the most dominant racing team in the world today, many are asking: What will Christian Horner's net worth be in 2023?

Christian Horner's Net Worth 2023: $50 million

The 50-year-old Horner is worth $50 million as of 2023, according to several reputable sources such as Celebrity Net Worth, Essentially Sports, Marca, and Planet F1.

Horner is reportedly the highest-paid team principal in the grid, earning $10 million per year.

The Red Bull boss trails his rival, Mercedes team principal and CEO Toto Wolff, in terms of net worth, with the Austrian executive having a net worth of $1.6 billion, per Forbes.

While receiving a lower annual salary as a team principal, Wolff owns a substantial 33 percent stake in the team. Nevertheless, Horner remains the second richest team principal on the grid by a considerable margin, with the next five bosses having net worths lower than $5 million.

Christian Horner's Wealth

It is important to note that the roles of CEO and team principal are typically separate positions in some F1 teams manned by different individuals, such as McLaren. However, Horner assumes both roles for Red Bull, which could be the reason behind his massive wealth compared to his peers, in addition to his tenure.

"For 23 race weekends of the year I'm the team principal of a high-performing sports team, and for the 52 weeks of the year, from Monday to Friday, I'm the CEO of a high technology business," Horner said in a recent interview with CNBC.

Being the head of a racing team, his car collection features luxury vehicles such as the McLaren 720S, Ferrari F8, Mercedes-Benz AMG, Audi R8, and Porsche Boxster.

Horner is also married to Spice Girls member Geri Halliwell, also known as Ginger Spice. The pop singer is worth $40 million herself. The couple shares one child, and they each have one child from previous relationships.
