Christian Horner has been in the spotlight in recent weeks due to allegations of inappropriate behavior made against him by a Red Bull employee. The ongoing investigation into this matter has seen new developments emerge daily. Despite Red Bull clearing Horner of all accusations, there was a leak of data allegedly related to the case that reignited discussions on the matter. Horner believes that other individuals within the paddock may have taken advantage of the situation. He also suggests that the media has played a significant role in sensationalizing the issue, with a particular focus on creating headlines. Unfortunately, Horner’s family, including his wife, has been dragged into the case due to the serious nature of the accusations.
Furthermore, Horner asserts that certain individuals exploited the situation, causing the investigation to garner more attention than it should. He refers to this as the less favorable aspect of Formula 1 business. Red Bull kept the entire case confidential from other teams and personnel involved in the sport. This lack of transparency has led to suspicions and a demand for more information about the investigation.
Despite the challenges faced by Horner, Red Bull remains focused on their racing season. The team has developed a strong car and had a good performance at the season opener in Bahrain, accumulating a significant number of points. Currently, they are gearing up for the upcoming Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
