JAKARTA Red Bull team boss Christian Horner is said to be attending the launch of a new livery welcoming Formula One (F1) 2024 amid an investigation into the issue of sexual harassment.
This is the first time Horner has made a public appearance since the emergence of a complaint over his inappropriate behavior. The sexual harassment made him currently being investigated by Red Bull.
However, he is expected to attend Red Bull's new F1 car launch event. Earlier, on Friday, February 9, 2024, Horner was interviewed by an independent lawyer for claims about her behavior towards a female employee.
Horner, who has led the team since 2005, also denied the allegations. Even so, the case will still overshadow him when he attends the event.
He could not possibly comment specifically on the allegations. However, it will certainly be the focus of attention in the investigation into him, Max Verstappen's driver, and Sergio Perez.

Red Bull's parent company said it was taking the allegations against Horner very seriously and added that it was inappropriate to comment before the investigation was completed.
The investigation into Horner could take weeks. Later, there has even been a question of whether the investigation will be completed on time before the start of this year's season.
The F1 pre-season test will take place in Bahrain on February 21-23, 2024. The first race of the season will also take place in the same place on March 1-3, 2024.
Red Bull's new car has been tested behind closed doors in a test at Silverstone. RB20 is a continuation of last year's RB19, which with Verstappen won the most dominant season in F1 history.
