The woman who allegedly harassed Christian Horner, the former Red Bull team’s principal, is now employed again.

Since being fired by Red Bull in March 2024, the woman has not worked and the BBC has not contacted her.

The woman’s employer declined to comment.

In July of this year, Red Bull fired Horner as the team’s principal.

The company did not give an explanation for his removal, but it did so in response to Red Bull’s ongoing on-track struggles, uncertainty regarding Max Verstappen’s future, and management tension.

Red Bull and Horner are currently negotiating a termination agreement.

In a letter to Red Bull in December of this year, the complainant made claims that Horner had been subjected to sexual harassment and coercive, controlling behavior. In February 2024, the allegations were made public.

On the eve of the 2024 F1 season, Horner has always refuted the allegations, and an internal Red Bull investigation has refuted them.

A group of senior F1 employees and the media were exposed a portion of a group of WhatsApp messages purporting to be related to Horner a day later.

The messages, described as “anonymous, speculative messages from an unknown source,” were not verified by Horner.

Following the complainant’s appeal, Red Bull conducted a second investigation, which came to the same conclusion.
