F1 | Horner-gate: the employee can appeal today

Rumors continue to emerge regarding the affair involving Christian Horner. His accuser, and Red Bull employee, has until today to appeal Red Bull's decision to clear the team principal of any wrongdoing. The woman's allegations of inappropriate behavior about Horner were dismissed last Wednesday following an internal investigation. But exactly one day later, at the end of the second free practice in Bahrain, private conversations with her were leaked online. Horner, who remains at the helm of the Red Bull Racing team, has always vehemently denied all allegations.

The female staffer is believed to still be working at Red Bull's Milton Keynes headquarters, the Times reports, and continues to keep in touch with Horner due to her role (which is not appreciated by his wife, Geri Halliwell who according to various media, she asked her husband to end all relations with the accuser).
