Red Bull F1 team principal Christian Horner has urged critics to “draw a line” under his alleged inappropriate behaviour after the accuse𝔉𓆉r was suspended by the team.

The female employee who accusꦍed Horner of inappropriate miscon꧒duct was suspended with full pay on Thursday.

It’s the latest development in a saga that has rocked Red Bull and F1 as a whole over the꧙ past mon🎉th.

While Horner was cleared of any wrongdoing following an independent investigation, the story didn’t sto𝓰p there.

On Thursday in Bahrain, alleged material from the investigation was leaked to F1 journalists, team bosses and officials from an anonymous email acco♔unt.

Horner - and his wi𝕴fe, Geri Horner - presented a u🍒nited front on race day in Bahrain, but things escalated after Jos Verstappen’s bombshell comments later that evening.

Ahead of practice in Sau༒di Arabia, it transpired that Horner’s accuser had been suspended by Red Bull.

Horner addressed ✅the situation in the FIA press conference ahead of second practice.

"I can't comment on anything that's confidential betw🌠een the employee and the company,” Horner said.

"Obvio♔usly the꧋re has been a lot of coverage surrounding this, but one has to go back to the basis of a grievance was raised, it was fully investigated, and it was dismissed. From there we move onwards.

"I think an awful lot has been made out of this. Obviously it has been of great interest in different elements of the media for different reasons. I think the time now is to lo☂ok forward and draw a l🦩ine under it.”

Ho🐬rn𒅌er wants to focus on the track action with Red Bull favourites to take both titles in 2024.

"We are here to go racing, we are here as a Formula 1 team, and the time now is to focus on what iᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚs going on on track and the performance of the cars and the drivers, where the spotlight should be during the course of a Grand Prix weekend,” he added.
