    You don't how they will act unless it happens. The fact that you seem to think how Christian appears to have behaved as being all fine and a laugh is maybe the reason why if a situation sadly ever happened like this to one of you daughters why they would maybe never tell you about it.

    My daughters are more terrors than victims, I can tell you !! They aren't afraid to pick up a fight if needed, bless them !
    I have always encouraged them to stand up for themselves, and not be afraid.
    Already at high school, they scared the boys who couldn't handle them, and they have kept that attitude as adult.
    They are certainly not the kind to be bullied in any way by some creepy bloke at work, or anywhere !

    To be honest, I only made it through the first 10 or so messages before I started experiencing second-hand embarrassment and had to stop reading. What a couple of asses.

    What I find disturbing is the dynamic of an older, male boss flirting or sexting with a younger, female underling. It reminds me of the Bill Clinton Monica Lewinsky story. The young woman wants to keep her job and/or access to the charismatic leader. I know it’s the same old story but it’s kind of creepy. Meanwhile tomorrow is FP1. Forza Ferrari!

    Do we actually know how old she is? She doesn’t look like a spring chicken based on the photos I’ve seen.

    Christian Horner's most significant contribution to F1 is as team principal for an organization that has won multiple WDCs and WCCs. Jos Verstappen's greatest contribution to F1 is being a sperm donor for a phenomenally gifted champion. The victim here is not Horner or the aggrieved but compliant PA. The potential victims are the many hard working employees of RBR and their families--their livelihoods are in jeopardy. For what or for whom? Bloody hell.

    Going into the next GP and we still have no official statements on record and nothing on video.

    The leaked texts have not been denied only avoided. I maintain my belief they are real

    Jos Verstappen is looking more and more likely that he played a key role, if not completely facilitated the whole thing.

    All of this appears to be over a woman that's aged like a worn leather glove.

    It's so hilarious that this is a soap opera to F1 fans and we are all sucked in waiting for the next shocking story line to emerge.

    Agreed. And do we know for certain that she didn’t initiate the contact? She may have made herself available without invitation. It happens, seemingly more and more.

    My theory is that Jos put all of this in motion, even getting his friend (the girl) to entrap Horner. Jos wants control of the team.

    The only interesting thing to me with all this ridiculous story is now all the mess created within this team.
    Really hope this will lead Newey to rejoin the Scuderia.

    Jos is having all types of fun due to Horner being a serial cheater and zero emotional intelligence to keep his indiscretions private. I fully applaud his efforts in helping Horner truly expose his idiocy lol. :)

    Fully and totally this is Horners fault! As stated by Jos - Horner is the cause and now plays the victim!

    I've seen you call Horner a "serial cheater" on several occasions. Is this factual or are you just being prejudice against him? I can't say I follow the personal lives of celebs, musicians or athletes so I have no idea.

    A wise female knows how to deflect unwanting attention, and it any case will soon make her choice between her career or her integrity if she feels threatened or manipulated.

    We may learn one day if Jos Verstappen engineered that of his own volition, or on behalf of someone higher up inside Red Bull, which wouldn't surprise me at all.

    Because you think the Scuderia is a better environment for Newey ? I don't think so ...

    Very true. People have different sensitivity on the subject, but in any case, adultry isn't a crime.

    Verstappen defends father over Horner criticisms: “He’s not a liar”
    Max Verstappen has defended his father Jos speaking his mind in criticising Red Bull Formula 1 boss Christian Horner, insisting “he’s not a liar.”

    If you are pushing 50, and you haven’t figured out how to handle a sexual harassment situation at work in 2024 with all of the modern trainings in place, as a grown ass woman, than what are you doing? My second grade daughter who’s 40 pounds wet dropped a little fool on the playground who tried to touch her.

    These are two adults who are older than I am. This is 2024, not 1950s “Mad Men” where there’s no sexual harassment training, bosses have liquid lunches, and flirting and sex are part of the 18 year-old secretary’s job description. If anything, Horner’s conduct is incredibly tame compared to that sort of crap. Now, I’m not justifying him AT ALL, but I find it hard to believe she didn’t know exactly what she was doing TOO. The only thing that makes this even more ridiculous is if Jos Verstappen is playing Stromboli behind the scenes.

    Newspapers and social media like to report so-called sex scandals among personalities for titillation.

    For all I know, Horner and Ginger Spice could be a couple of exchangists and not bothered at all about "infidelity".
