Formula 1 has been receiving some major news in recent days. Now, just as the news about Lewis Hamilton‘s move to Ferrari was settled within the paddock, a shocking revelation was made by Red Bull. Team Principal Christian Horner is reportedly under investigation for inappropriate behavior after a team member accused the 50-year-old.
The company has launched an independent investigation in the wake of these accusations against the boss. Milton Keynes confirmed that the team took any allegations of misconduct very seriously and worked towards amending them. Hence, there will be a thorough process to unravel the truth regarding any potential misconduct by Horner.
Regardless of these claims, the 50-year-old has openly denied any wrongdoings from his side. The Red Bull team boss highlighted that he did not do anything inappropriate within the team. Horner isn’t the most hot-headed person when it comes to the sport, as the Briton has been seen calm even during very tense situations. Hence, such a serious allegation needs to be dealt with very meticulously and sensitively.
I completely deny these claims.Horner told telegraaf.nl.
Fans were divided over allegations against Christian Horner
In a recent tweet on X, multiple fans shared their opinions over the status quo. The majority of the fans did not buy the story of the boss refuting the serious allegations. One fan recalled the cost cap breach of 2021 and how Horner denied those claims back then but they turned out to be true. Additionally, another fan added that the boss ‘denied everything’ hence it wasn’t surprising.
Apart from this, another fan recalled the fact that he denied the allegations made during Abu Dhabi 2021. One fan asked Christian Horner to start packing his bags as ‘RB will fire you’ due to the serious allegations against the boss. Additionally, another fan accepted how denying these claims is the only obvious thing to do.
Well he denied cost cap also ..

the accusations are very serious and apparently there is also proof. Hence why Red Bull stepped in to start up an official investigation.

However, a serious investigation of the entire matter will reveal the exact details of the allegations. Hence, the team desperately awaits the outcome of the investigation as Red Bull prepares for the 2024 season. Horner’s absence would hurt Milton Keynes’ performance, hence an early verdict is very necessary during these times.
