Christian Horner's Appeal Dismissed After Independent Review Clears Him of Misconduct

Posted : 09 August 2024

The female Red Bull employee who accused Christian Horner of inappropriate behavior has had her appeal against the investigation that cleared him dismissed, according to a report by The Times on Thursday. An independent senior barrister, known as a KC, reviewed all evidence from the initial investigation, which had cleared Horner just before the start of the Formula One season.

 

The complaint had cast a shadow over Horner’s future as the team principal of one of Formula One’s most successful teams. Despite the serious nature of the allegations, which emerged in February, Horner firmly denied any wrongdoing. Following the clearance, he continued in his role and remained a prominent figure throughout the current Grand Prix season.

 

Red Bull confirmed the conclusion of the appeal process in a statement to The Times. The company stated that an independent KC initially investigated the grievance, and upon the appeal by the complainant, another independent KC reviewed the case. The final decision upheld the original conclusion, rejecting the appeal. Red Bull has accepted and adopted the KC’s findings, and the internal process has been officially concluded.

 

The employee who made the complaint has been on paid suspension since March. Following his exoneration, Horner attended the Bahrain Grand Prix with his wife, Geri Halliwell, a former Spice Girls member. However, his position faced renewed scrutiny when an anonymous email, containing alleged private messages between Horner and the employee, was leaked to F1 officials and journalists the day after the verdict.
