Exactly my reaction. I know things were a bit turbulent last year, but I wasn't expecting this right now!

After collecting my thoughts I'm thinking this tells us Red Bull are seriously worried about Max leaving and are trying to take desperate measures. It could be related to the sexual assault allegations but the timing seems off with that and I'm pretty sure they knew they were true all along.

If it has anything to do with sexual assault allegations it's because they're either worse than we thought and they're getting ahead of it, or because they can't spin whatever is gonna come up with it

Or they've already ignored it but the performance of RB has been awful

This was rumoured/hinted at in Austria if I'm not daydreaming? Was it van Haren that's tweeted it?

You wouldn't fire a team principal effective immediately without giving a reason IMO. Maybe this is Red Bull operating differently from your regular F1 team and it's really just because performance and Max. But to me it sounds like something bigger โ€“ either related to the allegations or Horner did something that lost him the owners trust.

Yeah it's more likely to be in relation to keeping Max. The team is toast without him, they'll very likely be a backmarker with their current car.
