Storm at Red Bull with accusations against team director Christian Horner, which have shocked the Austrian team.
Horner is at the center of an investigation, immediately launched by the team and conducted by an independent counsel appointed to look into the allegations against him, for sending "intimate images" to a female team employee.
At the moment of greatest difficulty, the 50-year-old British man was supported by his wife, Geri Halliwell, with a source close to the former Spice Girls singer telling The Sun:
" Geri was in tears all weekend while taking care of her children. She insists that Christian did nothing wrong .
In various international media there is talk of "inappropriate behavior towards an employee of the racing team", according to the German newspaper "Bild" and the British newspaper "The Times", the complaint came from an employee of the team, who received intimate images of Horner on her cell phone.
The details that emerge, even if the presumption of innocence must be maintained, would have prompted the team to reflect on the manager's future. But there are those who think that it could also be an internal laundering of accounts.
According to rumours, Kristian Horner has been asked to step back and resign to avoid the sack. Horner himself has denied everything.
Infighting or not, Horner's position is very much at risk within Red Bull. Some media are already talking about who could be his successor.
Jonathan Wheatley is the most likely name as he is already the team's sporting director, the other candidate is technical director Pier Wash, who would prefer to stay in his department.
