Huge news came out of Formula 1 on Wednesday as Red Bull Racing announced it had fired team principal Christian Horner after 20 years and 14 championships. Max Verstappen has become the best F1 driver in recent years, winning the last four drivers' titles, all with Horner in charge.

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner is out, fired after 20 years at the helm of the F1 racing team that's won six Constructors championships with him. And it's the end of an era with his partnership with Max Verstappen, not because the four-time champion is leaving for Mercedes (yet?), but because Horner won't be leading the team anymore.
