The conclusion of the investigation into Red Bull team principal Christian Horner may be reached as early as the upcoming week.

Currently under an internal investigation by the team for alleged 'inappropriate behavior,' the 50-year-old has vehemently denied the accusations.

Horner continued to assert his innocence when publicly addressing the matter for the first time at the RB20 launch on Thursday.
