At the recent season launch, he emphatically maintained his innocence. Can you guarantee you have never behaved inappropriately towards a colleague . I deny accusations that have been made against me. With the season looming, key figures in the sport had called for a swift resolution. Its very concerning the allegations are extremely serious, and it certainly seems like things should be coming to an end here quickly, because we really need to be talking about formula 1 as we go to the start of the year. Just 72 hours before the first race in bahrain came the news that he had been cleared of misconduct, following an independent investigation, with a statement from the tean� s Parent Company saying that red bull can confirm grievances have been dismissed.

While everyone here at the team based in Milton Keynes has been trying to operate as close to Business As Usual as possible, Christian Horner has acknowledged this matter has been a distraction as the start of the season looms. Only time will tell if results on the truck will reflect that. This was horner in bahrain last week for testing. Now knowing he will stay on as chief. He and Sport Organisers will be relieved that the investigation was completed before the lights go out for the first grand prix of the year but given the chance of an appeal, this might not be the end of the road.

First of all, hes a fun guy, and a great guy to be around. So thats always a great quality in life, i think. Then for sure, hes an admiration of mine because i wasjust going up the rankings and there was a moment when he was winning slams, playing finals and stuff like this against roger and rafael, the big four.

You can find the full draw on the bbc sport website. Thats it from me. See you later. Hello there. Sunshine was a scarce commodity across the uk on wednesday but we had most of it in eastern scotland, Withjust Overfour hours of sunshine in edinburgh. However, the rest of us, rather cloudy, grey and, at times, wet but it was mild with it. However, as the rain continues to push south and east, the Wind Direction is changing. Well see a return to some colder air across our shores. So thursday will start off mild but wet across Southeast England and east anglia. Quite a lot of cloud generally across england and wales, with the best of any brighter skies into northern ireland, scotland northwest scotland seeing a real rash of showers, accompanied by Gale Force Gusts of winds through the day. It will start to turn colder generally across scotland, 6 9 celsius, maybe double digits for a time before that front clears through in the southeast. But, as we move out of thursday into friday, we see this next Frontal System moving in and, as temperatures fall away through the night, bumping into that colder air which is sitting in place across the country, yes, we could see a return to some wintriness. Itll going to be across Higher Ground generally temperatures will be sitting around freezing first thing on friday morning, perhaps below in eastern scotland. But therell be a risk of some snow above 200 metres in northern ireland, scottish borders, across the pennines, and into north wales. We could see a few centimetres accumulating, so that might cause some minor disruption, but it will be rain elsewhere. So you can see, circulating around that low pressure, is that Frontal System and it will bring some sunny spells and scattered showers, a mixture of rain, sleet and snow at times across wales and south west england, perhaps drier into the far north of scotland. But temperatures a little bit down 6 9 celsius. Dont forget, friday is the first day of march, so these values just below par for this time of year. Then, as we move into the start of the weekend, we maintain the sunny spells and scattered showers and the Wind Direction still coming from the north, so it will feel quite cold, and we could still have a wintry flavour with any elevation. So again, 6 7 celsius the expected high. But as we move out of saturday into sunday, we see another Frontal System bringing a spell of more organised rain for a time again, on the leading edge, there could be some wintry showers but it will be rain eventually as that front moves through. So the weekend will stay pretty unsettled for most of us. Take care. Live from washington, this is bbc news.
