Despite Red Bull, after an internal investigation, declared the matter closed. There are still many questions and few answers about the case that continues to hold sway in the Formula 1 paddock. A case that has also highlighted the different factions in the Austrian team. As reported by the newspaper Business F1 Magazine exactly this one survey about Christian Horner would hide a sensational truth that would call everything into question again, reopening the controversy which now also involves the lawyer who followed the case.
The new scandal
With the acquittal of Christian Horner on charges of inappropriate conduct towards a Red Bull employee, the possibility of his dismissal has begun to lose steam. Horner was immediately supported by the Thais who own a majority share in Red Bull, but not by the Austrian component of the group, which also includes Helmut Marko and Jos Verstappen. The support of the Thais has put Horner in a great position. And this is why the team still remains "united" despite many patches.
Ma There are those who wanted to investigate this relationship more deeply, arriving at discovering the mechanism that led to Horner's acquittal. According to what Business F1 Magazine discovered, the lawyer who exonerated Christian Horner was not as independent as thought, but rather a lawyer with strong ties to the Yoovidhya family. Furthermore, to this lawyer whose identity was also revealed, he would also be asked to prepare a report exonerating Horner. A document that downplayed the employee's accusations, instead defending the team principal's position and his work at Red Bull. Again according to Business F1 Magazine everyone at Red Bull was aware of it of this situation. However, no one would dare to speak out for fear of going against the Yoovidhya family.
In such a situation it is difficult to understand who and what truth to believe. There are still many shadows surrounding the case and as they emerge they put Red Bull in an increasingly complex situation.
