JAKARTA - The boss of Red Bull Racing, Christian Horner, has finally been acquitted of allegations of sexual harassment against his employees.

A month ago, Horner was hit by harassment issues. He has been under investigation by Red Bull Racing's internal team and external parties in the past three weeks.

The parent company Red Bull Racing in Austria issued an official statement on February 28, 2024 local time.

"Red Bull can confirm that the complaint has been ignored. Red Bull believes that the investigation has been carried out fairly, strictly, and impartially."

"Investigative reports are confidential and contain personal information from parties as well as third parties who assist the investigation. Therefore, we will not comment further on respecting all parties."

"Red Bull will continue to strive to meet the highest workplace standards," read the official Red Bull Racing statement.

Hearing the news, Horner's wife, Geri Halliwell, said she was relieved and happy. The former Spice Girl member admitted to being tortured in recent weeks due to alleged sexual harassment through a short message by Horner.

Now, Horner means remaining the head of the Red Bull Racing team until the end of the 2024 Formula One season.

"These are weeks of hell for Christian and his family. As he has said so far, these claims are crazy."

"A thorough investigation has been carried out and the allegations have proven unreasonable. Geri is very supportive of Christian and his whole family feeling relieved and happy because it's all over."

"It does exist, but no one close to Christian wants to celebrate what he's been through. For now, his focus is fully back on winning races," said a source in The Sun's report.

Meanwhile, parent company Red Bull Racing confirmed that the complainant, who is known to be still working at the team headquarters in Milton Keynes, has the right to appeal.

Christian Horner is currently leading the team to compete in the opening race of F1 2024. He has flown to Bahrain ahead of the Bahrain Grand Prix to lead Max Verstappen and his friends.
