According to F1 photographer Kym Illman, a significant update has emerged through social media, suggesting a pivotal turn of events for Horner. Illman's post read:

"VERDICT EXPECTED TONIGHT

"I am told that Christian Horner is right now on a private flight that has stopped in Austria to pick up Helmut Marko and will be landing here in Bahrain in a couple of hours.

"A decision about Christian's future is expected to be handed down prior to 8pm tonight. If he is on his way here, it suggests that he has been cleared of the allegation and will continue on as the Team Principal and CEO of Red Bull Racing. We will know in a few hours."
