'Woman who accused Horner feels unfairly treated by Red Bull'

In a short message, Red Bull informed that Christian Horner was found not guilty. This message did not mention anything about his future. Red Bull subsequently suspended the woman who filed the complaint. The team did not want to comment further on internal matters.

Suspended Red Bull employee finding it tough

A friend of the Red Bull employee has told the DailyMail how the woman is doing now. "She is so disappointed with how it's all gone, especially as she did everything by the book. She raised her concerns in private and did everything right, but she feels very let down by the company. They have suspended her when she followed the proper process diligently and correctly. The lack of support is noted and she's just so disappointed with the treatment from her employer. Look at what happened. She complained there was a supposedly transparent, independent investigation, Horner was cleared, and she was then suspended."

According to the friend, a lot of questions need to be asked of Red Bull about the investigation. "'Who at Red Bull was tasked with establishing the facts? Who at Red Bull had access to all the confidential material that was used? Who at Red Bull is making all these decisions and who at Red Bull is making efforts to establish the source of these leaks? She just can't get over the fact that she made a complaint and was suspended – all she wants is transparency in the process," the anonymous friend said. According to her, the suspended Red Bull employee has been inundated with offers to tell her story, but she has decided to keep it private.
