The entire Christian Horner investigation saga has been deepening every week. As the 2024 F1 season gets underway, this case continues to loom over Red Bull’s campaign. Moreover, major shocking revelations have been surfacing against the principal, effectively weakening the case against him.

Recently, according to reports by De Telegraaf, Horner had provided approximately $800k to silence the female victim of the Briton’s alleged sexually transgressive behavior. However, the entire case was made public and the Briton has been in grave danger of being proven guilty of the entire allegations against him. Hence, Red Bull wishes for an early result, keeping in mind the upcoming season in just under a month.

According to the Times, Red Bull wants to conclude the entire process by early next week. Moreover, the investigation saga could stretch until the opening race in Bahrain. However, such a late decision could prove to be critical for the constructor hence they rush the entire investigation process. If Horner turns out to be guilty, the entire team would also feel the tremors of the 50-year-old’s exit from the team as he was an integral part of the team.

It seems as if the odds are really against the principal as the female employee decided to take further steps on the entire matter. According to the F1-insider, the employee has decided to take a sick leave from work as the entire case proceeds. Apart from this, the Female is ready to take the entire case to the English courts against the offender and she has even made an application over this, according to reports.

However, following the sides of the story, Christian Horner had previously denied all allegations against him. Additionally, the 50-year-old tried his level best to swipe the entire matter under the rug and provide the employee with monetary funds in exchange for her silence. Moreover, Horner rejected the offer to exit Red Bull following these claims and save his public image but decided to stay for the drama and believe in his righteousness.

Regardless, the entire case has been moving ahead with major speed with the entire Red Bull crew deciding to hold a neutral stance and complete silence over any updates. The entire matter could prove fatal to Milton Keynes as the team could become caught in the crossfire. Hence, the entire crew and the grid await the results of the investigation as soon as possible.
