Christian Horner has been advised by former Formula One driver Ralf Schumacher to “resign as soon as possible” in
order to spare Red Bull from “immense damage.”
Red Bull team principal Horner has come under intense scrutiny since an internal investigation into his behavior
following a female employee’s claims of inappropriate behavior.
Although the 50-year-old was found not guilty and has continued to lead the squad this season, the drama hasn’t
ended there.
Jos Verstappen expressed his desire for Horner to resign, saying the continuing drama might potentially destroy the
team.
Max Verstappen, meantime, openly supported Helmut Marko, who was thought to have been responsible for leaking
the information from Horner’s probe.
Due to the current circumstances, there has been a great deal of conjecture on Verstappen’s future, involving
Mercedes and now Aston Martin.
Schumacher, an F1 racer from 1997 to 2007, thinks that if Horner stays in leadership, the “chaos” will persist.
“When he presented himself as a victim during the Saudi Arabian press conference, it started to bother me,”
“Yes, I apologize to his family, but he was the one who initiated this whole situation. He must have gotten quite close
to his personal helper, and I don’t think that can be disputed anymore. He keeps stating he doesn’t want to discuss
anything in depth, but I can’t believe that.
Drawing from my personal experience with my divorce, I can attest that initially, it might be challenging to handle a
private situation in public.
But eventually, we need to have this conversation because it’s best for everyone involved. For instance, it’s bad when
Horner’s employee isn’t communicating with you. Nobody discusses her.
“One thing is for sure: Red Bull will suffer significant harm as long as this disarray persists. No one is more
significant than the team, according to Horner. He ought to obey this directive and step down as soon as feasible.
