That seems like incredibly shoddy journalism given that it is posed as a question.

Also I didn't realise Saward got a job at the Beeb.

Enough of these scandals end in sexual assault thing that it's easy to jump to the conclusion of "yet another rich, white man in a position of power is a sex pest". In this case though I think it's more that Horner is a prick to work under and now that Matteshits can't silo off the F1 team, they're getting the corporate scrutiny.

No one knows what the allegations are. Different sources have suggested different things. Reports have been vague because there's no other way to report on it.

Buy stocks that prices are undervalued relative to their intrinsic value and sell stocks that are overvalued relative to their intrinsic value.

If I was to casually guess as to why they are taking this so seriously I would suggest that Red Bull really don't want "figure in a leadership position is above the law" in the headlines given the son of the Thai majority owner hit and ran a police officer like 10 years ago and that poo poo got swept under the rug

I have a strong suspicion that the post-Mateschitz regime no longer sees the value in F1 and this is the beginning of them trying to cut back.

The team won like all the races last year and F1 in more popular than its ever been, by every metric their F1 team is a market success so I'm not sure that's it. What I do think is that there is some clever dude in middle management who can see the writing on the wall and Ferrari is just going to run away and dominate the series from 2025 onwards so they're probably trying to lean up ahead of time in anticipation of that.

So I guess (Horny) Horner wont be buying into the team anytime soon then.

You'd think any of the smaller teams would pick him up in a heartbeat if he does leave Redbull or will he be like Flavio and not welcomed back (for a few years)

Random local retailers will take pre-orders as part of regular business - . Lego randomly does pre-orders and will sometimes open up for orders if you are part of the LEGO Insiders program (free) a few days early.

Best Buy in the US is one option it seems:
