Christian Horner will be at Red Bull’s car launch, despite the ongoing investigatio♕n into allegations against him, which he denies.

Horner attended his team’s shakedown of their F1 2024 car, the RB20,🦩 at Silverstone on Tuesday.

And, significantly, he is set to be present on Thursday at Red Bull’s Milton Keynes headquarters when the media areܫ welcomed for the official launch of the RB20.

Horner has denied allegations of controlling behaviour from a fem♚ale colleague and was questioned by an independent lawyer last Friday, bu🌺t no verdict has yet been issued.

“He’s under investigation. He is൩ continuing in his job,” Sky’s Craig Slater updated.

“It’s business as usual, that’✤s the message t🅠hat I am getting from Red Bull Racing.

“He has been in the factory for the lasꦚt few days.

“He [was] at t💎he Silverstone Circuit [on Tuesday] where thꦦe car is having its shakedown.

“He i♛s carrying out his duties as team principal and chief executive.

“I al✃so expect him to present at the launch of t𝄹he team’s car on Thursday.

“The key point to make is that we have to separate what’s going on with the F1 team and the F1 schedule, with the season drawing close, and this investigation🙈 into allegations of ina𓃲ppropriate behaviour.

“We understand a female member of൲ staff has made them about controlling and coercive behaviour which Horner denies.

“That will follow🔯 its own timescale. I have been reporting consistently that𝓡 it could take weeks and could stretch into the Formula 1 season before that investigation is concluded.

“I’ve heard nothing to change that potential timescale.🐼”

Initially Red Bull hoped to make a decision in Horne🎶r’s investigation before launching their car on Thursday, but that🎐 will no longer happen.

Red Bull GmBH, the F1 team’s parent company, said last week: “After being made aware of cert👍ain recent allegations, the company launched an independent investigation.

“The company takes these matter𝐆s extꦯremely seriously.”

Horner has said: “I completely deny the claims.”

The F1 team have s൲aid: “Having being made aware of certain recent allegations, the company launched an independent investigation. This process is being carried out by an external specไialist barrister.

“Th🌞e investigation will be completed as soon as practically possible. It would no🍷t be appropriate to comment further at this time.”

Supporters o🍸f Horner believe he is “a pawn in a wider power struggle” at Red Bull, the𒅌  report.

Horner still counts the influential Berni෴e Ecclestone as an “ally”, the report states, and he believes he can retain his job as team pr൩incipal and chief executive of Red Bull Racing.

But other F1 insiders think he might not cling ꦡon, the newspaper reports.
