In the latest season of Drive to Survive on Netflix, Red Bull boss Christian Horner learns about a leak of alleged WhatsApp messages. Ahead of the 2024 season-opener in Bahrain, Horner was investigated by Red Bull GmbH due to allegations of inappropriate behavior, which he denied. The investigation ultimately cleared Horner, but WhatsApp messages between him and a woman were leaked during Friday practice in Bahrain. This moment was captured by Netflix cameras and forms a key storyline in the opening episode of the series. Horner discusses the incident in a sit-down interview, revealing how the leaked messages were meant to cause maximum distraction and aggravation, with the goal of making him leave Red Bull. Other paddock figures like Toto Wolff and Zak Brown are also shown reacting to the messages, as Horner speculates on who might be behind the leak.
