Zak Brown and Toto Wolff are steering the conversation towards transparency in F1, calling on the FIA to further investigate Christian Horner’s case, initially probed by Red Bull for allegations of inappropriate behavior. Despite the investigation concluding with Red Bull dismissing the grievance, the lack of detail in the outcome has the motorsport community pressing for more answers.
