WHO IS CHRISTIAN HORNER?

Less than a decade ago, Christian Horner was just another young driver struggling to make his way in motorsport. Today he takes the reins of a Formula 1 team with a $100 million budget.

It is a remarkable transformation, and one that will prove a major test for Horner.

The Briton may have achieved considerable success in F3000, but Formula 1 is a whole different ball game.

Horner will be asked to hold his own with the likes of Ron Dennis, Frank Williams and Jean Todt, imposing men who take no prisoners.

At 31, Horner is almost 20 years younger than any of his fellow team principals. Even Nick Fry, the new man in charge at BAR, is 48.

As a driver, Horner enjoyed modest success in the lower echelons of British motorsport in the early to mid-Nineties.

He founded Arden Motorsport in 1997 in order to contest the international F3000 championship.
