The functionary was accused by a female colleague of “inappropriate behavior”
Corporation Red Bull made a statement about the completion of the investigation against Christian Hornerhead of one of the structural divisions of the concern – the team Formula 1 Red Bull.
The accusations against the functionary were officially rejected. Horner remains in his position without any sanctions.
“The applicant has the right to appeal. “Red Bull is confident that the investigation was fair, rigorous and impartial,” the statement said.
The details of the case remain confidential. The company is not disclosing details “out of respect for all stakeholders.” It is only known that the subject of the investigation was Horner’s accusations of “inappropriate behavior” on the part of his female colleague.
Let us remind you that the start of an internal investigation by Red Bull became known in early February.
Horner, 50, has been at the helm of the aforementioned racing team since 2005. Last year, Red Bull had its most successful season in Formula 1, winning 21 out of 22 races. In total, the team led by Horner won seven individual seasons, including Max Verstappen’s last three, as well as six constructors’ championships.
It was no coincidence that the corporation was in a hurry to complete the investigation by the end of February. Tomorrow, on the 29th, the first and second practices will take place at the debut stage of Formula 1 of the new season – the Bahrain Grand Prix. The main race will take place on Saturday, March 2, at 17:00 Kyiv time.
