Horner will have to step aside: https://www.is.fi/formula1/art-2000010242993.html

"... In Viaplay's broadcast, pit reporter Mervi Kallio said that there is already talk in the pit that Horner will have to step aside. He says that he talked about it with "a few actors".

- The decision has apparently already been made, Kallio shook on the broadcast while standing in front of Red Bull's team picture.

- Why he hasn't been kicked out, if such a decision has already been made, is probably due to the details being filed. Of course, this is all just speculation, Kallio continues.

Kallio later specified that, according to his information, the matter will be announced during the next week, possibly even as early as Wednesday. ..."

Who’s driving on Day 1 of pre-season testing in Bahrain?

After spending the winter preparing their new cars and launching them to the world, all 10 teams were reunited on Wednesday with pre-season testing getting under way at the Bahrain International Circuit.

The fastest lap on the first day in 2023 was Max at 1:32.837. The current lap by Max is is faster at 1:32.548 and there's still half an hour to go. I have a feeling the other teams are running race pace for the most part since their qualifying pace had differed a fair amount from the race pace from last year. It's just testing at this point, lap times are less important.

I read the same "insider info" a week or two ago, and nothing happened so far. From what if read it seems no one knows what's happening as no one even know who is doing the investigation as the person was never named.:
