Maybe. He’s always said he’ll retire and become a grumpy farmer, and he’s building a horse racing team with Geri that is beginning to have some success.
Perhaps a Netfix show to rival Amazon Prime's Clarkson's Farm series. Or Gerri and Horner could launch their version of the lovely Toyah and self-deprecating Robert (watch that tutu) FrippEdited by 595Heaven on Friday 26th April 12:34

Does Horner really need this aggravation?
He's built a monumentally successful team and achieved every goal he could possible have set for it.
He could just step back and enjoy life.
He could, but have you seen his wife’s spending habits? He needs to keep her in the helicopters she’s become used to. He's built a monumentally successful team and achieved every goal he could possible have set for it.

Note how the DM article is merely about how some unknown to us producer has considered the pair for the Netflix treatment. No actual mention of an approach to any entity involved other than to the DM with the story. The entire thing could just have easily been wholly fabricated within the DM to generate ad rev. The could be some truth in that someone has thought about doing a program or there could be absolutely none. But we do know the DM will have made rev. And we also know that for some this story will be the Gospel truth and something to spend the weekend enraged over. 
I think this is TV programme show is probably happening.
Consider the timing. Strong suggestions that Adrian is off, later in the same week this reality show is announced.
Is it the straw that has broken the camels back? As a leading member of the Red Bull team, he would probably be expected to show up from time to time and as deeply private man, I think the idea of that would turn his stomach.

I think the TV thing is complete b
ks and the press fabricating any old crap to point at the Horners as it sells stty papers.
And then people are bored enough with their own existence to take it seriously and start imaging the cause and effect of a TV show that is almost certainly made up in the first place.
I only check on this thread occasionally to see if there any actual updates on Horner's game of power grabbing. It seems there nothing new to date - I'll fly by again in a weeks time

Well it appears that the best aero man in F1 has decided to leave and is seemingly citing the alleged hand job harasser as part of the reason. robscot said:
Any pics / details of that online?
I can’t find that carbon fibre one but there’s been a few as far as I know. https://tentenths.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13189...
The one name that seems gets little mention in all of this is Ford who'll be doing the RB engines from 2026 onwards with some suggestion they may go all-in at some point thereafter.
Ford is a company that likes things done the Ford way by Ford people (we've all seen LeMans'66).
I wonder if all that is going on is somehow connected to them shaping the team in a manner that suits them.

That’s how they did it then. 58yrs ago!!! Ford is a company that likes things done the Ford way by Ford people (we've all seen LeMans'66).

Ford aren’t ‘doing’ RB engines as such.. their input is elsewhere, software & hybrid intergration. RB have ex Honda and Merc people heading up the engine side.

Red Bull Powertrains and Ford to partner on the development of the next-gen hybrid power unit that will supply engines to both Oracle Red Bull Racing and Scuderia AlphaTauri teams from 2026 to at least 2030
Ford returns to Formula 1 as the FIA and F1 deepens its focus on sustainable racing and advanced hybrid technologies, while leaving a legacy of positive change wherever it races
Ford will provide expertise in areas including battery cell and electric motor technology as well as power unit control software and analytics

The biggest contribution from Ford will be a stack of money behind an oval badge to pay for RBP to develop its own IP.
Yup. Cash 4 green washing. Where it can go wrong for the recipient of the cash is when Ford steps away from pushing their eco agenda and wanting to push their puritanical claptrap Gassing Station | Formula 1 | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
