As the Formula 1 community sets its sights on the Australian Grand Prix, the controversy continues to loom over Red Bull Racing's team principal, Christian Horner. The allegations of inappropriate conduct against Horner are taking a new turn with the accuser, who has remained largely in the shadows until now, stepping into the limelight with the backing of a professional PR team.

The saga began when the accuser first raised allegations against Horner, leading to an internal investigation by Red Bull Racing. The team had previously announced the conclusion of this inquiry, absolving Horner of any wrongdoing. This stance was echoed by Horner himself, who highlighted the strain the allegations had placed on his personal life.

Despite the team's efforts to close this chapter, the accuser's recent move signals a refusal to let the matter rest. By hiring a PR firm, she has not only amplified her voice but also reaffirmed her commitment to challenging the findings of Red Bull's investigation. According to an AP report, her spokesperson confirmed the filing of a formal complaint with the FIA's ethics committee and an appeal against Red Bull's decision to clear Horner.

The timeline for the hearing of the internal appeal and the ethics committee complaint remains uncertain. As the F1 world converges on Melbourne, the focus might be on the track, but the spectre of this controversy will undoubtedly loom large over the Red Bull Racing team.
