Christian Horner's huge income away from F1 and £86m assets he shares with wife Geri

Christian Horner and his wife Geri are certainly not short of money despite the 51-year-old losing his job at Red Bull. Earlier this week, it was confirmed that Horner had been relieved of his duties in a bombshell announcement. He spent two decades as Red Bull's leading man, overseeing six Constructors' Championship titles.

Horner has amassed a huge fortune over the last 20 years and is set to receive a hefty payout after his Red Bull axe. His contract was set to run until 2030 and his lawyers are said to be thrashing out the terms of a settlement. If everything goes to plan, Horner could be granted a severance package worth up to £60million.

He already has plenty of money behind him thanks to a series of shrewd investments and clever business moves. It means the former Red Bull team principal and his family will remain financially secure regardless of what happens next.

Horner and his wife Geri own a number of sprawling properties, including their main home in Oxfordshire. The listed building boasts an indoor swimming pool, boating lake and helipad as well as a farm housing animals such as donkeys, horses and chickens.

It was snapped up by Horner in 2006, with the former Red Bull supremo paying around £2m for the historic mansion. However, it is now believed to be worth around three times as much.

The family also have their very own horse racing company, with Geri believed to be the driving force behind it. They own a string of thoroughbreds with names like Lift Me Up, It's Raining Men, Look At Me and Mi Chico Latino.

The latest accounts show that business earnings were tripled after a £600,000 spending spree back in 2023. The couple forked out £137,000 on biological assets, £280,000 on buildings and £187,000 on motor vehicles.

In addition to their main residence in Oxfordshire, they are believed to own another home in nearby Hertfordshire. Horner also bought a four-bedroom townhouse in Chelsea, spending around £3.75m on the lavish property in 2012.

Geri, meanwhile, acquired her own detached home in Highgate for around £4.35m in 2006. The property is now estimated to be worth up to £9m.

Horner is previously thought to have purchased a lavish Cotswolds property for his ex-wife Beverley, who recently died after a battle with cancer. Initially bought for around £1.5m, it is now believed to be worth closer to £2.3m.

Alongside the various property investments, Horner has raked in a huge amount of money from his Red Bull salary. He is believed to have earned upwards of £66m since 2011, a figure which includes performance-related bonuses.
