The executive producer of Netflix's Drive to Survive series has revealed how the show will cover the Christian Horner scandal when the new season drops. 

Formula One has been rocked by allegations of inappropriate behaviour against the Red Bull supremo made by a female colleague at his team - with the husband of former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell since being cleared of misconduct by an independent panel. 

However, his future remains under scrutiny after text messages between Horner and what appears to be a female colleague were leaked in 79 screenshots, as an anonymous sender sent an email that also copied in FIA chief Mohammed Ben Sulayem and F1 boss Stefano Domenicali. 

The accuser has been suspended as the saga rages on, and now James Gay-Rees, the boss of Drive to Survive - the show that documents the dramas of the F1 season - has addressed the scandal and revealed how his team plans to treat it. 

‘It will have to be referenced in some capacity, yeah,' he told the Telegraph. 'And they will all want it to be told in a particular way, so it’s about treading that line to keep everybody happy, and to keep Netflix happy, and us – so we can sleep at night with the decisions we’ve made.
