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 2 points 1 year 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?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

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

[–] SatouKazuma 4 points 1 year ago

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

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

[–] SatouKazuma 4 points 1 year ago

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

[–] bhmnscmm 3 points 1 year ago

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

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year 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.

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.”
