‘Business as normal’ for Horner

Horner faced allegation🌞s over his behaviour toward a female employee which resulted in speculation surrounding his own future and political in-fighting and turbulence at Red Bull.

"The thing is, as soon as you step across that red line into the garage, you leave behind all the noise from the pღaddock. And as soon as you went across that red line everything is business as normal,” he said.

"My role remains unchanged.🎉 In that there’s an awful lot… I wear many hats with [being] trackside, I'm the team principal of a high-performing sports team and from Monday to Friday, I'm the CEO of three technology businesses on chassis, engine and advanced technology.

"So, nothing has changed, business as normal."
