BARCELONA, Jan 23 (Reuters) - Former ‌Red Bull boss Christian Horner could take a stake in the Alpine Formula ‌One team but Renault would have to approve any deal with minority shareholders, ‌Alpine's executive advisor Flavio Briatore said on Friday.

Horner -- one of the most successful principals ever and a leading figure on Netflix's 'Drive to Survive' F1 docu-series -- was sacked last May, reportedly with an 80 million pound ($108.72 million) payoff.
