An appeal against Red Bull team principal Christian Horner regarding allegations around controlling behaviour has been dismissed.
In March, a female employee suspended by Red Bull appealed against the decision to clear Horner of inappropriate behaviour.
Horner, 50, who has always denied the claims made against him, has continued in his role as Red Bull F1’s CEO and team principal.
Red Bull said in a statement: “Earlier this year a complaint raised against Christian Horner was investigated. The complaint was dealt with through the company’s grievance procedure by the appointment of an independent KC who dismissed the grievance.
“The complainant exercised the right to appeal, and the appeal was carried out by another independent KC. All stages of the appeal process have now been concluded, with the final outcome that the appeal is not being upheld.

“The KC’s conclusions have been accepted and adopted by Red Bull. The internal process has concluded.
“The company respects the privacy of all its employees and will not be making further public comment on this matter at this time.
“Red Bull is committed to continuing to meet the highest workplace standards.”
