These allegations come in an unfortunate moment for the team principal and his whole team - just ten days ahead of their season launch on February 15th.

Therefore, the goal of the team will be to resolve the situation as soon as possible, preferably before the launch. However, it is emphasized the situation is taken "extremely seriously."

Christian Horner is currently the longest serving team principal on the F1 grid by far. He has been the team principal of Red Bull Racing ever since the team was created in 2005.

At the time of appointment, the Brit became the youngest F1 team principal ever. 2024 will be his 20th anniversary with the team from Milton Keynes.

The 50-year-old has been an essential part of steering the energy drinks company's subsidiary towards the immense success it has had in the last three seasons.

In relation to the claims, the team principal himself rejected everything: "I completely deny these claims." Perhaps we will hear more about this investigation in the upcoming few days.
