When F1 testing for the 2024 season begins on Wednesday, Christian Horner will be on the Red Bull pit wall.
Horner is traveling to Bahrain on Tuesday to supervise the RB20’s inaugural competitive run, as reported by F1-
Insider.
The CEO of Red Bull is presently being investigated for allegedly inappropriate and controlling behavior, according
to claims made by a female employee.
After an independent lawyer conducted an inquiry, Horner vehemently refuted these allegations.
On February 9, Horner was the focus of hours of questioning throughout the investigation.
It’s still unknown what will come out of the probe and when it will be made public.
Speaking at the team’s vehicle introduction on February 15, Horner said that everything was “business as usual.
When the 2024 Formula One season begins in March, the 50-year-old made it very plain that he intends to remain in
the position.
Several parties have issued statements following the introduction of Red Bull’s automobile, beginning with Formula
One.
“We hope that the matter will be clarified at the earliest opportunity after a fair and thorough process,” F1 stated in
calling for a prompt conclusion.
Shortly after, the FIA, which oversees Formula One, issued a statement of a similar nature. Ford, Red Bull’s engine
partner, is also said to have written a letter to the Austrian beverage giant.
Ford asked Red Bull to conduct their probe into the Horner dispute in a “rapid” and “transparent” manner.
Horner will lead Formula One’s world championship-winning team for the time being as they want to launch an
aggressive new car and have a strong Bahraini start to the season.
