Winter testing of Formula 1 started in Bahrain this Wednesday, February 21, but the extra-sporting aspect is not closed. Under independent investigation into allegations of inappropriate acts towards an employee of Red Bull Racing, Christian Horner is present at Sakhir.
His counterpart at the head of Mercedes, Toto wolff, was questioned on the sidelines of these tests about the “Christian Horner affair”. And the Austrian director has a very strong opinion on the role that F1 must play.
“Formula 1 and the teams stand for inclusion, equality, fairness, diversity. And it's not just about talking about it, but living it day after day. I think those are the standards we set for ourselves. We live in a sport with global reach, one of the most important sporting platforms in the world, and we must be role models. »
“We want to talk about racing cars and we want to talk about sports, rather than these kinds of very, very sensitive topics that are more than just a team management issue. It's a problem for all of Formula 1."
Toto Wolff hopes that the investigation launched by Red Bull GmbH will be conducted impartially, and that it will shed light on this story. “If it's done in a good way, with complete transparency and rigor, it's something we need to look at to see what the results are and what it means for Formula 1, how we can learn from it. »
