F1 | Red Bull, VIPs suspended from the Academy for a racist comment on Twitch

Lightning out of the blue inside the Red Bull Junior Academy. With an official note published last night on its social channels, the team led by Christian Horner announced the suspension of Juri Vips.

The Estonian made a racist comment during a Twitch broadcast and this led the Anglo-Austrian team to choose immediate suspension, pending further investigations into the incident. Furthermore, in the press release, Red Bull reiterated that there is zero tolerance towards racist behavior and language within the "school".

Vips, we remember, is currently involved in Formula 2 with the Hitech Grand Prix team and has already taken to the track with the "mother" team in the first free practices of the Spanish Grand Prix held in May.
