Red Bull’s partner and future engine supplier Ford has released a statement regarding the investigation into allegations of ‘inappropriate behaviour’ against Christian Horner. The Red Bull boss was grilled by an independent lawyer last week as part of the investigation and publicly addressed the allegations at the team’s car launch on Thursday.
As a partner of Red Bull, Ford have now addressed the investigation into Horner. Mark Rushbrook, global head of Ford Performance Motorsport, told Association Press: “As a family company, and a company that holds itself to very high standards of behaviour and integrity, we do expect the same from our partners.
“It appears to us, and what we’ve been told, was that Red Bull is taking the situation very seriously. And of course, they’re worried about their brand, as well.
