Christian Horner Still in Deep Waters; Anon Person Sends “Evidences” Against Red Bull Boss to Journos, Team Principals and Stefano Domenicali

Although Red Bull GmbH may have cleared Christian Horner of any wrongdoing, the Briton is still in hot waters. The team had confirmed via an official statement on Wednesday that they did not find any evidence to suggest that the 50-year-old was guilty of “inappropriate behavior” after a female employee leveled allegations against him. Even though the Austrian multinational company may have given a clean chit to Horner, an anonymous individual may have once again landed the Red Bull boss in trouble. According to F1 journalist Jenna Fryer, an anonymous account has shared a ‘Google Drive‘ that contains confidential ‘evidence‘ against Horner.

Both Mercedes’ Toto Wolff and McLaren’s Zak Brown have asked for more clarity and transparency as Red Bull’s statement to clear Horner of any wrongdoing was very vague. Since rival team bosses have also had their say on the matter, the pressure will be on F1 to ensure that the investigation the Austrian company carried out was thorough.
