Christian Horner has told the media he is ‘100 percent’ committed to Red Bull following a report Ferrari were enquiring about his services.
According to reports in Germany, Ferrari chairman John Elkann reached out to Horner this week about replacing Fred Vasseur.
Elkman and Horner are known to have a good relationship going back many years.
The Red Bull man denied that he was planning a move to Italy during the Barcelona press conference. However, he didn’t deny there had been an approach for his services.
"Of course it's always flattering to be associated with other teams but my commitment 100 percent is with Red Bull," Horner said. "It always has been and certainly will be for the long-term.
"There's a bunch of speculation always in this business. People coming here, going there or whatever. I think people within the team know exactly what the situation is."

Horner was seated alongside Alpine’s Flavio Braitore, who had struggled with answers throughout the press conference.
Horner quipped: "My Italian is worse than Flavio's English, so how on earth would that work?"

Elkann had originally approached Horner in 2022 when he was looking for his replacement for Mattia Binotto, but the Englishman turned down the opportunity to work for the Scuderia.
Vasseur was chosen instead to replace the outgoing Binotto and initially did well with the Italian team finishing second last season.
