Christian Horner will be at Red Bull’s car launch, despi🤪te the ongoing investigation into alleg🎐ations against him, which he denies.

Horner attended his team’s shakedown of their F1 2024 car, the RB20, at S❀ilverstone on Tuesday.

And, significa﷽ntly, he is set to be present on Thursday at Red Bull’s Milton Keynes headquarters when the media are welcomed for the official launch of the RB20.

Horner has denied allegations of controlli𒁃ng behaviour from a female colleague and was questioned by an independent lawyer last Friday, but no 🍃verdict has yet been issued.

“He’s under investigation. He is continuing in his job,” Sky’s Craig Slater upd꧃ated.

“It’s business as usual, tha♍t’s the message that I am getting from Red Bu🦂ll Racing.

“He has been in the fa💝ctory for the last few days.

“He [was] at the Silverstone Circuit [on Tuesday] where the car is having it🍎s shakedo൩wn.

“He is carrying out his duties as team 𓆉principal and chief executive.

“I also expect him to present atꦯ the launch of the team’s car on Thursday😼.

“The key poin🍸t to make is that we have to separate what’s going on with the F1 team and the F1 schedule, with the season drawing close, and this investigation into allegations of inappropriate 𒉰behaviour.

“We understand a female member of staff has made them about cont🍨rolling and coercive behaviour which Horner denies.

“That will follow its own timescale. I have been reporting consistently💟 t💟hat it could take weeks and could stretch into the Formula 1 season before that investigation is concluded.

“I’ve heard ꦐnothing to change that🥃 potential timescale.”

Initially Red Bull hoped to make a decisꦓion in Horner’s investigation before launching their car on Thursday, but that will no longer happen.

Red Bull GmBH, the F1 team’s parent company, said last week: “After being made aware of certain reꦉcent allegations, the company launched an independent investigation.

“The🐷 company takes these mꦕatters extremely seriously.”

Horner has said: “I completely deny the claims.”

The F1 team have said: “Having being made aware of certain recent allegations, the company launched an independent investigation. This process is bein𝐆g carried out by an external specialist barr🍷ister.

“The investigation will be completed as ꩵsoon as practically poss🌠ible. It would not be appropriate to comment further at this time.”

Supporters of Horner believe he is “a pawn in a wider p𝐆ower struggle” at Red 🌊Bull, the  report.

Horner still counts the influential Bernie Ecclestone as an “ally”, the report states, and he believes he can retain hiꦏs job as team principal and chief executive of Red Bull Rꩲacing.

But other F1 insiders think he might ꧅not cling on, the newspaper reports.
