Spice girls

Mohammed Ben Sulayem: Formula 1 chief executive Stefano Domenicali and FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem are set to meet to discuss the investigation into allegations of inappropriate behaviour against Red Bull team principal Christian Horner made by a female colleague.

The team principal, who is married to Geri Horner of Spice Girls, was exonerated on Wednesday of "inappropriate behaviour" following a three-week internal investigation led by an outside attorney. The investigation was prompted by accusations made by a female colleague, which Horner vehemently denied.

However, a mere day later, FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem, F1 chief executive Stefano Domenicali, the nine other team principals in the sport, and members of the media received leaked WhatsApp texts and images purportedly displaying conversations between Horner and the complainant. The source was anonymous.
