Christian Horner is a former British race car driver and current team manager who earns a salary of $10 million. He is probably the most famous for being the team manager of Red Bull Racing Formula One, a position he has held since 2005.
Horner won a Formula Renault scholarship in 1991. He competed in the 1992 British Formula Renault Championship with Manor Motorsport and finished that season as a winner and the highest placed rookie.
He then moved up to British Formula Three and made his debut in 1994 with the Fortec team. In 1995, he moved to the ADR team and moved again in 1996 to the TOM’s team.
When the Red Bull Racing team brought Horner to Formula One in 2005, he was the youngest of the team principals at the time. The team’s success has continued to grow under the direction of Horner.
