More likely seems a casus belli for those who want Horner to leave or at least to get his wings clipped.

Maybe or maybe not but you mention it yourself in that if it does get back to 'those' who are attempting to use this as a reason to oust CH, which looking at it is weak, and if it gets back to those persons then they themselves could be in the 'dock' with the boss in Austria.

CH is in central London today at a secret location speaking with the lawyer/barrister appointed by RB gmbh, could be at a lawyer firm.

So much for a quick resolution...

The original stories tended more to a sexual claim, but now it's already called "coercive, controlling behaviour", which can mean anything. My expectation is that we'll hear nothing tangible for 1 or 2 months and then read that the alledged accusations are not true and nobody cares anymore as it's then old news. I have a customer who knows Horner personally (former RB and AT employee), and he sais Horner can be a real jerk on the workfloor, but...that's an opinion of an ex employee, so that's probably coloured too. So who knows who wants him gone...

Everybody wants the cake, but not the consequences.
The type of person it takes to hold this position for a week, let alone multiple years, is the type of person that will always be accused of being too aggressive, too strict, prone to bad behavior, etc. It's part of the equation. Regardless of what he said or did to whatever girl or guy, it's par for that course, and in fact, happens regularly... |

Especially powerful bosses and small business owners. God is my witness the number of prima donna that I have put up with during the years. Meetings on Fridays at 4:30pm, weekly exec reports summarising the weekly reports, call me sir, don’t disagree with me, everybody seated before I arrive, don’t put a full stop at the end of bullet points, don’t hyphenate, no jean even on Fridays, etc, etc. Indeed, many bosses are a total pain in the arse. |

it's not assault, it's not sexism, not racism, not harassment, not bribery, not blackmail, not sexual (it was and then it wasn't?) i mean, what even do those words mean! c'mon Marko - i mean Red Bull, you can do better than this? give us more meaningfully worded accusations to chew on! I'm not defending CH, but no police involved, but within a few hours they find and pay a barrister of their choice to "investigate". by the time they hired that barrister, s/he already has all the information he needs from the employee. i'd say the decision has been made. |

That story that Perez intentionally crashed his car is complete hogwash. It's that type of journalism that has created all of this nonsense. |

i think you need to watch the analysis of that crash (not in depth, just video with telemetry). serious.

I still don't know what Horner did. And I know nothing about his managerial style.
For sure F1 is massively demanding, and RBR is at the top of the heap. If one doesn't like that type of environment --I don't--, then go work elsewhere. Being difficult goes both ways. But any half decent manager knows about the 5-6 styles of management. I too used to be rather austere. And sadly I've ruined a few friendships. Thankfully that's far behind me now. Today I go by what a dear girlfriend taught me: 'You get more from bees with honey'. Night and day. But I dig, I'm not running a massively demanding F1 team. But there's the other saying. 'You reap what you sow.' Hopefully there's a lesson here for Horner. It's never too late to change for the better.
