Woman at centre of Christian Horner sexting scandal set to be quizzed by investigators within days

THE woman at the centre of the Christian Horner sexting scandal is set to be grilled again by investigators this week.

She will be re-interviewed as part of an appeal, after her complaint against the Red Bull Racing Formula 1 boss was dismissed.

The woman, who has been suspended from her job at the team’s UK headquarters, challenged the independent report into her claims.

A new barrister has been appointed for the appeal and is due to speak to her within days.

Her evidence could also see Horner — married to Spice Girl Geri Halliwell— quizzed again.

An F1 source said: “No one wants this to drag on any longer than it needs to.

“Red Bull has made it clear that once the appeal is over, they are willing to be fully transparent.

“They don’t want to do anything that compromises the process but when it’s done, the gloves are off.”

Bosses remain unlikely to publish the full report into the scandal, however, as both sides have signed confidentiality agreements.

The woman has separately lodged a complaint against Horner with the sport’s ruling body, the FIA.

Boss Mohammed Ben Sulayem held an hour-long meeting with Horner during the Bahrain GP back in February.
