Following the dismissal of Christian Horner, as reported earlier this month on the Companies House website, the British equivalent of the Chamber of Commerce, he was no longer listed as a director. Meanwhile, Laurent Mekies has been added to the board of one of the companies involved with the Red Bull Racing team.
Horner was previously a director at Red Bull Racing, Red Bull Technology, and Red Bull Powertrains. Earlier this month, it was reported that this is no longer the case. After the dismissal of the British team manager, he is no longer a director of the companies surrounding the Red Bull Racing team in Formula 1.
Mekies officially joined the Red Bull board
On Thursday, changes were made again at the company's house. Mekies is now officially registered as a director. Not at Red Bull Racing or Red Bull Powertrains, but at Red Bull Technology.
It was previously announced that Stefan Salzer became a director at Red Bull Racing. He replaced Horner in the management of the Austrian racing stable. He was appointed on July 8 this year, but it was not recorded until August 14, when it was reported that Horner was no longer a director of the team.
