Christian Horner: Appeal against Red Bull team principal over controlling behaviour allegations dismissed | F1 News

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.
