Christian Horner arrives at F1 Bahrain preseason while being under investigation b𒁏y Red Bull
💃Christian Horner is in Bahrain for F1 pr♑eseason testing on Wednesday.
He is currently being investigated by Red Bull, the parent company of t🧔he F1 team, after alওlegations about his conduct from a female colleague.
Horner has denied all accusations.
He insisted last week at the launch of Red Bul🔯l's F1 car, the RB20, that he would still be in his job by the season-opening round in Bahrain on February 29.
But a 🌞report then emerged from The Times insisting that Red Bull would aim to speed up a decision over their investigation into Horner, and could even come to a conclusion this week.
Formula 1 released their first statement on the ꦦissue urging a quick resolution.
"We hope matter will be clarified at 🐽earliest opportunity, after a fair and thorough process," F1 said.
Buಞt, as of Wednesday morning, no decision hඣad been announced.
Red Bull's Helmut Marko defended t𓃲he speed of the investigation: "As you know, this is an internal investigation.
"[But] I think Red Bull has reacted very well in this matter. The long duration of this investigation is not their fault. Th🍸ey are endeavouring to [h☂ave] a fair investigation and then react accordingly.”
"The sooner a result is available, the better because of course, rumours and other stories are bou🦩nd to sprout due to the🐼 long duration.
But, Horner arrived in 🐈the F1 paddock alongside engineer Adrian Ne♏wey on Wednesday.
The day is significant for the RB20 taking to the tra🌟ck.
Red Bull enjoyed having F1's dom💖inant car last year but, at the launch of their 2024 version, there was a mystery over certain elements of the RB20's concept.
Questions should be answered by its fꦜirst 𝐆laps under Horner's watchful eye.
