'Horner allegations come from female colleague at Red Bull Racing'

Since the allegations of Red Bull Racing team principal, Christian Horner, have come out, the question arises, what exactly is going on? Different stories are coming from all sorts of quarters.

A response from Red Bull to the rumours stated that the allegations would be certain. The Austrian company has launched an internal independent investigation into the matter. They will not go into the substance of what is going on. Two major stories are now circulating about what allegedly happened.

Internal power struggle

One story, according to Horner loyalists, would be that the allegations are an attempt to take away his power at Red Bull Racing. This would be the result of an internal power struggle between Horner and Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko. Red Bull's Austrian owners are reportedly on Marko's side and Horner can only count on the support of the Thai owners.

Accusation from close colleague

Red Bull's response to the rumors states that it concerns certain accusations. The Austrian company has launched an internal independent investigation into the matter. The parent company does not elaborate on what is going on, but various details are slowly coming out. Allegedly, it was an accusation from a close colleague.

The Daily Mail reports that the accusations come from a female executive who currently works at Red Bull Racing. Last Monday she was still working at the factory in Milton Keynes. This colleague is said to be close to Christian Horner within Red Bull Racing. What happened between the two is not discussed further.
