These types of investigations should not be made public until they are concluded... Its totally unfair to subject someone to the court of public opinion..

One would think the teams would have learned from the Toto Wolff shitshow.

This is formula 1, when do team's or fia learn from prior mistakes...on serious note..will be pretty wild if Horner get him self ousted due to doing something inaproriate, I would think some one who managed to bring his team so far would not do something stupid to only loose it all...especially in current age...

Powerful men think they can get away with anything when it comes to less powerful women. You see it time and time again with athletes, Hollywood execs, CEO, etc.

People with everything to lose do stupid shit all the time. Just ask Tiger Woods.

[-] soEZ@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Fair enough. Haha

Horner may be guilty or innocent. But I hate how he's regarded as guilty by default. Can we wait for the investigation to be done?

Well if “losing support within the team” is accurate, there is probably some truth in the accusations unfortunately.

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

The real Problem here is that we don't know whether the report is true that he might be losing support

[-] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

This was my first thought. I wonder if we're going to see other changes at Red Bull, as well.

[-] smeg@feddit.uk 12 points 2 years ago

Any actual info here or just if maybe this then maybe that?

[-] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I'm not seeing a whole lot of substantive info here. Move on.

[-] bhmnscmm@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

The infamous "inside sources" have said so, so it must be true.

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 11 points 2 years ago

Dutch and british tabloids are now reporting that one factor in Horner losing support could be due to a power struggle between Horner and Marko, which has been brewing behind scenes ever since Mateschitz' death. Apparently Horner wanted to push Marko out of the team at the end of 2024 when Marko's contract runs out.

It would have to be pretty fucking damning and incredibly serious offenses for them to part ways with Horner. The guy just had a record setting season that will go down in F1 history. The last few years of dethroning Mercedes and becoming a juggernaut.

I seriously doubt he has "lost support" at Red Bull...unless he did some off the wall crazy shit.

Isn't Newey arguably more important to the teams success?

I wonder if it’s just a case of “Yes I sent dick pics, but they were spotted dicks and it was my mum’s recipe.”
