30 Days of BTG: Day 1 – How Christian Horner became Red Bull Team Principal

The 2024 Formula 1 season will soon be upon us, which means we’re bringing you a brand new series of F1 Beyond The Grid. Season 7 starts Wednesday 28th February so get ready for more in-depth conversations with Formula 1’s biggest stars.

In the build-up, Tom Clarkson takes you on a tour of the best bits of his huge BTG archive in 30 Days of Beyond The Grid.

On Day 1, we’re taking you back to Christian Horner’s first interview on the podcast in 2018, when he told Tom how buying a trailer from Helmut Marko in the mid-nineties led to him becoming Team Principal of Red Bull Racing in 2005.
