STORYLINE:
VOICEOVER:
Christian Horner has been fired as head of the Red Bull team in Formula 1.
He'd been in the job for 20 years and in that time, Red Bull drivers won eight Formula 1 titles and that includes defending champion Max Verstappen.
So why has Horner been replaced so suddenly, halfway through the season?
There was no explanation in a statement from the Red Bull company today though it did thank Horner for his work.
Red Bull's results on the track have dipped season and Verstappen has said often that he's not happy with the car. There's even been speculation he could seek to join a rival team, like Mercedes.
Horner's position has come into question before. He faced a complaint of alleged inappropriate conduct last year involving a team employee.
At the time, Red Bull said that complaint and a subsequent appeal had been investigated and dismissed.
Horner denied wrongdoing and remained in charge of the team.
Laurent Mekies from the sister team Racing Bulls is due to take over as Red Bull Chief Executive.
