The advisor of Red Bull has spoken up regarding the ongoing investigation into Christian Horner. Helmut Marko, along with Christian Horner, who holds the position of team principal, has been under scrutiny by the parent company for the past few weeks. Allegations of inappropriate behavior with a colleague have been made against the leader, leading to an ongoing investigation. Marko has now addressed the concerns and praised Red Bull for their handling of the situation.
In response to a complaint against their F1 team principal, Red Bull Austria has initiated an inquiry. The company has enlisted the services of an external attorney to conduct a fair investigation and deliver a verdict in a timely manner. Last week, Horner was questioned for several hours, which has sparked speculation about his future with the team. The 80-year-old has come to the defense of the team and commended them for taking prompt action.
Known for his outspoken nature when it comes to various F1 personnel, the Austrian has tactfully addressed the issue involving his colleague. The investigations against the 50-year-old have escalated to the point where the complainant may pursue resolution in a British court. The team is determined to conclude the investigation as quickly as possible in order to safeguard the brand’s reputation from further damage.
Horner made his first public appearance at the RB20 launch in Milton Keynes. The British team principal was accompanied by key members and drivers, including Max Verstappen. During the launch of the RB20, the Dutchman shared his thoughts on the investigation surrounding his boss.
The reigning champion has stated that there are no conflicts between himself and Horner, despite the speculations. The 26-year-old believes that the investigation is ongoing and expects a verdict to be announced soon.
Now, the three-time champion is preparing himself for the upcoming season. Verstappen is fully focused on delivering his best performance in the upcoming season. The Dutchman set multiple records last year and aims to add more trophies to his collection this season.
