Christian Horner has decided to remain in his position as the head of Red Bull’s team, despite being advised to step down. Earlier this month, a female employee made allegations of inappropriate behavior against him. The team’s owners, the Austrian beverage giants, have launched an internal investigation into the matter. Horner has vehemently denied all of the accusations and stated that the investigation has not caused any issues for the team.
Despite receiving advice from his close allies to resign until the investigation is concluded, Horner has chosen to stay in his role as team principal. He fully respects the investigation process and hopes that it will be completed soon. He has also addressed rumors of internal politics, stating that there is no power struggle within the team and that they work together as a cohesive unit. Horner expressed gratitude for the support they have received from the shareholders, which has contributed to their success.
The allegations of ‘controlling behavior’ against Horner have cast a shadow on Red Bull. However, during the launch of their new car, he emphasized his dedication to the team and his excitement for the future. Red Bull is anticipating a successful season with their RB20 car, as they have dominated the sport in recent years, winning both the drivers’ and constructors’ titles. Horner, who is the youngest team principal in the sport, is now the longest-serving on the current grid.
