Tl;dr allegations made against Christian Horner, Horner refutes them. This is the most nothingburger of an article (no offence of course, to OP).
Red Bull doing well enough by bringing in an independent firm to investigate. Can't say I'm surprised if indeed abuse occurred, given the cutthroat nature of the sport. (Note: I'm not excusing it, but just saying that I'm not necessarily shocked.)
If this is sexual misconduct, what does the sport being cutthroat have to do withΒΏ? It would be one thing if he verbally abused someone or slapped them or something as that can be attributed to being overly strict and cutthroat(not condoning such behaviour) but sexual abused cannot be explained by this reasoning.
PS - then again the source that claims that the misconduct is sexual in nature is BILD so it could be completely false.
I'm just going with Occam's Razor here, assuming that it's something that isn't sexual. If that's indeed the case, then the sport provides no explanation whatsoever.
