Christian Horner has found himself in a precarious situation due to an ongoing inquiry. The team principal of Red Bull has become the center of attention for all the wrong reasons. He is currently facing investigation for inappropriate conduct. Recent reports suggested that former F1 boss, Bernie Ecclestone, wants Horner to step down from his position at Red Bull. However, Ecclestone has vehemently denied these claims.
In response to the uproar in the world of F1, Ecclestone has taken matters into his own hands. Through an Instagram story, he has refuted the reports of him advising Horner to resign from his role at Red Bull. Ecclestone’s statement clearly states that he has had no involvement in suggesting Horner’s departure and labels the recent reports as entirely false.
While Ecclestone denies any involvement in Horner’s potential resignation, the investigation into the latter’s behavior is expected to be a lengthy process. It is likely to continue throughout the 2024 F1 season, which is set to commence on February 29th. The Red Bull group, based in Austria, has appointed an independent body to investigate the allegations against Horner. However, a conclusion is not expected to be reached anytime soon. In the meantime, Horner will continue to fulfill his role as the Team Principal.
Christian Horner is a prominent figure in the F1 world, playing a pivotal role in the sport’s growth. His success with Red Bull in recent times has been remarkable. It will be intriguing to observe how the investigation unfolds during the upcoming season.
