[4](#comments) A year after his Red Bull exit, Christian Horner is reportedly cleared to walk the paddock again at Silverstone - just as Aston Martin speculation over his next move intensifies. Christian Horner looks set to make his first Formula 1 paddock appearance since his [Red Bull](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-teams/red-bull-racing/) exit at this weekend's [British GP](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-calendar/2026-f1-calendar/). Amid fresh speculation linking the former Red Bull boss with [Aston Martin](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-teams/aston-martin-f1-team-information-statistics/), Germany's Bild now reports Horner has been invited to [Silverstone](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-circuits/silverstone-circuit/) by Formula 1 and the [FIA](https://www.fia.com/). "Formula 1 has been waiting for one man for a year - Christian Horner," correspondent Michel Milewski wrote. "According to information obtained by Bild, the former Red Bull team principal and CEO has been invited by Formula 1 and the FIA to attend the Grand Prix at Silverstone as a guest." Milewski added that "final confirmation of his attendance is still pending", but F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali and [FIA](https://www.fia.com/) president Mohammed Ben Sulayem are "assuming it will happen". "The green light has turned back on," Bild reported. "Horner is allowed to go full throttle again - and he's doing just that." The report says Horner's paddock restriction, agreed as part of his Red Bull departure package, expired at the end of May. "Is Horner back? Yes and no," Milewski wrote. "He was never really gone. Despite being banned from the paddock, the Briton maintained his contacts." Horner's future remains the subject of intense speculation, with Aston Martin again linked in recent days, while other reports have connected him with [Alpine](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-teams/alpine-f1-team/), Chinese manufacturer BYD and a potential future twelfth Formula 1 team. ## Christian Horner at Red Bull | Team principal since | 2005 | | --- | --- | | Constructors' titles | 6 | | Drivers' titles | 8 (Vettel x4, Verstappen x4) | | Paddock ban expired | End of May 2026 | *See also: [the F1 all-time archive](https://www.f1-fansite.com/all-time-f1-archive/) on F1-Fansite.* Related: [Horner linked with Aston Martin amid comeback talk](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-news/horner-linked-with-aston-martin-amid-comeback-talk/) Share this article [Share on X](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=Horner%20set%20for%20Silverstone%20paddock%20return&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Ff1-news%2Fhorner-set-for-silverstone-paddock-return%2F&via=wpvkp) [Share on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Ff1-news%2Fhorner-set-for-silverstone-paddock-return%2F) [Share on WhatsApp](https://api.whatsapp.com/send?text=Horner%20set%20for%20Silverstone%20paddock%20return%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Ff1-news%2Fhorner-set-for-silverstone-paddock-return%2F) [Share on Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Ff1-news%2Fhorner-set-for-silverstone-paddock-return%2F&title=Horner%20set%20for%20Silverstone%20paddock%20return) [Share on Pinterest](https://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Ff1-news%2Fhorner-set-for-silverstone-paddock-return%2F&media=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.f1-fansite.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F05%2FSI202507030443-Groot-1200x675.jpg&description=Horner%20set%20for%20Silverstone%20paddock%20return) --- ![Leopold](https://www.f1-fansite.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/IMG_17701-1-220x220.jpg) About the author ## [Leopold](https://www.f1-fansite.com/author/leopold-pleijsier/) Leopold Pleijsier founded F1-Fansite.com in 2001 and has followed Formula 1 since the early 1980s.

He’s certainly been on a regular gardening leave, but I didn’t know he’d agreed with Red Bull not to even set foot in the paddocks for a little while, which is unheard of & of course, not an actual requirement by rules.000 - might be in ant tps contract that if they are let go , they keep out of the paddock , Otmar kept away from the paddock so maybe standard practice000 - Unless, he voluntarily kept out of the paddock, but that's a possibility.000 - I think he wasn't very sad to not have to go to that snake pit for a long time...hahaha000 💬 Join the conversation — [see the latest comments from F1 fans →](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-comments-on-f1-fansite-com/) Comments are closed.
