I am shocked, shocked! Well, not that shocked.

ETA: I see the downvotes, and I'm curious as to why? Red Bull in general has always given off strong "toxic work environment" vibes, and every time I've seen Horner give an extended interview where the topics discussed range further afield than the latest race, he's come off very much as the gross uncle type. None of it's enough to condemn the guy on its own, of course... but it's enough for me to see these latest allegations and say "yeah, that seems like it tracks."

I feel like this is more likely to be professional bullying rather than sex pest-ism? Still quite an announcement after a crazy week of news. Hope it is a fair and correct process

From what I've read, allegedly, horner sent inappropriate pictures to a female employee.

It doesn't look good, but let's wait for the results of the investigation before we pass any judgment.
