The father of the woman at the centre of the Christian Horner s*x text scandal has welcomed the Red Bull team principal's sacking, insisting 'that the right thing has happened.' Horner, 51, was today released from his operational duties as the boss of Red Bull, bringing down the curtain on an illustrious 20-year stint which saw him deliver eight drivers' championships and six constructors' championships. It's believed Horner has been pushed out due to poor performance at the team, and friction with Max Verstappen's camp. There is no suggestion that the former Red Bull boss was fired due to the scandal. #christianhorner #redbull #redbullracing #maxverstappen #gerihalliwell
