Unbelievable: Jos Verstappen responded in six words to the purported Christian Horner messages that were leaked and also….
Jos, the father of Max Verstappen, was in the paddock on what ended up being a very eventful Thursday for Red Bull.
At the beginning of the day, Horner was beaming as he carried on with business as usual following the dismissal of a female Red Bull employee’s complaint by the beverage corporation. The 50-year-old had been performing his F1 duties in an unsettling environment while Red Bull hired an outside barrister to prepare their conclusions.
Another bombshell struck the circuit on Thursday afternoon when an unknown source provided media a Google Drive folder purportedly containing conversations and pictures that Horner had given to an unidentified individual.
“I won’t comment on anonymous speculation, but to reiterate, I have always denied the allegations,” the Red Bull team principal retorted.
“I completely cooperated with the independent investigation at every stage, respecting its objectivity. An independent specialized barrister carried out a comprehensive and impartial inquiry, which has finished with the complaint being dismissed.”
