Red Bull has reportedly suspended a female employee who accused team principal Christian Horner of inappropriate behavior. The suspension, with full pay, comes in the aftermath of an independent investigation that cleared Horner of any misconduct. The reason for the suspension is said to be related to the findings of the inquiry, although Red Bull has declined to comment on the matter.
The employee has the right to appeal the verdict, while Horner himself was not suspended during the investigation. Shortly after the investigation concluded, private messages allegedly between Horner and the accuser were leaked to various individuals, including F1 executives and journalists.
