'Problems behind the scenes,' Ralf Schumacher breaks down unrest within Red Bull amidst Christian Horner investigation

Ralf Schumacher was recently asked by the German news agency, DPA, to talk about the whole Red Bull situation and while sharing his thoughts on the same, he said, as reported by racingnews365:

The right structures are in place. There has been unrest in the team and I hear that there have also been problems behind the scenes - the question is whether people are so divided that they can no longer work together. [Should Horner depart], then I don't see any danger for the team - I can imagine that another person could also lead Red Bull Racing.

Schumacher with his reaction, has made it quite clear that even if Christian Horner is sidelined in the upcoming days, nothing much will change at Red Bull. Moreover, he has even indicated that he already has a person in mind who could lead Red Bull’s F1 operation going forward.

An announcement regarding the Christian Horner investigation is expected soon

While Ralf Schumacher has made it known that Horner’s potential axing won’t have a huge impact on Red Bull, its parent company, Red Bull GmbH, is expected to make an announcement regarding inappropriate behavior soon.

As per the latest, the independent body that was hired to look into the saga has submitted its final report to the Austrian outfit. Now it is up to the board of directors to look at the report and come out with an official announcement.

The next few hours are going to be one of the most important in Christian Horner’s career as Red Bull’s team principal. If the decision-makers find the Brit guilty, he will in all likelihood be shown the exit door. The Austrian group has a well-known reputation for having a zero-tolerance policy toward inappropriate workplace behavior.
