The Mercedes F1 team knows how to celebrate podium finishes - even when the spotlight isn't on their own driver.

Mercedes delivered a special gift to Kick Sauber Fomrula One driver Nico Hulkenberg after he finished the British Grand Prix in third.

The team led by Mattia Binotto, Sauber, experienced an unforgettable moment when Nico Hulkenberg crossed the finish line in third place at the British Grand Prix of Formula 1 (F1) 2025. This result not only marked the German driver's first podium in his 239th race but also signified Sauber's return to the podium since Kamui Kobayashi's feats in Suzuka 2012.

Laurent Mekies, the boss of sister team Racing Bulls, will replace Horner, who has been with the team since its inception in 2005 and led it to 124 wins and numerous championships.

Christian Horner has been fired by Red Bull's Formula 1 team and it only adds to speculation about the future of four-time champion Max Verstappen.

As shocking as Christian Horner’s exit is, the biggest question it has raised is: what does this mean for Max Verstappen's future?
