The team confirmed and reacted very briefly to the newspaper, simply saying: “We take the matter very seriously”. Horner, boss of the Red Bull team since its creation in 2005, for his part disputes the facts with which he is accused.
“After becoming aware of certain recent allegations, the company launched an independent investigation,” Red Bull explained in more detail in a press release sent to various media. This procedure, which is already underway, is carried out by a specialized external advisor. The company takes these matters very seriously and the investigation will be completed as soon as possible. It would not be appropriate to make any further comments at this stage.”
The affair breaks out one month before the resumption of the Formula 1 World Championship (next March 2, with the Bahrain Grand Prix in Sakhir), dominated during its previous edition by the inevitable Red Bull racer, Max Verstappen .
