CHRISTIAN Horner and Geri Halliwell are “in talks” to make a fly-on-the-wall documentary after the racing boss’ “sexting” saga, a source claimed.

The rumoured opportunity arose after a streaming company – that works with Netflix – reached out to the couple.

Horner and Halliwell – who already featured in Netflix’s Drive to Survive – are said to want to put the recent storm behind them.

F1 chief Horner, 50, was cleared of misconduct towards a female colleague – allegations he had always denied – by an internal probe in February.

A source told the Mirror: “The idea that has been pitched is a really personal documentary, capturing Geri and Christian at home.

“Following the recent speculation about their relationship, there would be a huge amount of interest in seeing them together away from the race track and how they interact with their friends and family.”

They added how Geri hailed the Beckhams’ Netflix documentary and was inspired by how behind the scenes footage helped re-mould their image in the public eye.

But, if the Horner family give the green light, it could spark a “bidding war” over which streaming service produces it.

Horner was cleared of misconduct towards a female colleague by an internal probe.

His unnamed female accuser has lodged an appeal – which is said to be ongoing – after her complaints were dismissed and is said to be “determined for the truth to come out”.

She is set to be grilled again by investigators and her evidence could also see the racing boss star quizzed again too.

An F1 source said: “No one wants this to drag on any longer than it needs to.

“Red Bull has made it clear that once the appeal is over, they are willing to be fully transparent.

“They don’t want to do anything that compromises the process but when it’s done, the gloves are off.”

Bosses remain unlikely to publish the full report into the scandal, however, as both sides have signed confidentiality agreements.

The woman has separately lodged a complaint against Horner with the sport’s ruling body, the FIA.

But five races into the 2024 season and the outwardly business-as-usual Horner appears to have weathered the storm.

Ex-F1 chief Ecclestone, who is one of the sport’s most iconic and long-standing figures, told the Mail: “It’s peace in our time.

“And Christian informs me everything’s fantastic with Geri.”

Ecclestone was best man at Horner and Halliwell’s wedding nine years ago and brought the former racing driver into the sport to head up the new Red Bull team in 2005.

He revealed: “Max (Verstappen) seems likely to stay, and it’s like all wars in so much as people get over things and move on… after not too long everyone forgets.”

However, Ecclestone’s support for Horner keeping his £8million-a-year role seemed to waver in February, when Horner was engulfed in the first stage of the scandal.

SCANDAL… LAP BY LAP

FEBRUARY 5: A Dutch newspaper reports a female Red Bull employee has made serious allegations of “inappropriate, controlling behaviour” about Horner to parent company Red Bull GmbH.

FEB 9: Horner is quizzed for nine hours by the lawyer hired by Red Bull to investigate.

FEB 15: He denies the allegations and says they are a distraction for the team.

FEB 15: F1 says it hopes the matter will be clarified at the earliest opportunity after a fair and thorough process.

FEB 26: Red Bull’s engine partner Ford says it is increasingly frustrated by the team’s handling of the complaint.

FEB 28: Horner is cleared of all wrongdoing. The employee is said to have the right of appeal.

FEB 29: Horner says he is pleased the investigation is over.

FEB 29: WhatsApp texts and pictures claimed to be between Horner and the employee are sent to journalists and F1.

MARCH 1: Horner refuses to comment on what he calls “anonymous speculation from unknown sources”.

MAR 2: Horner and wife Geri are pictured hand-in-hand, as Red Bull’s Max Verstappen wins the Bahrain Grand Prix. Horner says before the race: “It’s been very testing for my family but we are very strong and our focus is on this race.”

MAR 3: Verstappen’s dad Jos, claims Red Bull is in “danger of being torn apart” if Horner stays in the job.

But he denies being the source of the WhatsApp leak, saying: “It can’t go on the way it is. It will explode. He is playing the victim, when he is the one causing the problems.”

MAR 6: Max Verstappen sides with his dad in the row.

MAR 7: Horner says he wants to draw a line under the scandal and hails Geri’s support — as Red Bull suspends the employee.

MAR 15: Horner’s accuser allegedly launches an appeal against the investigation that saw the Red Bull chief cleared & the sport’s governing body, the FIA

MAR 17: Horner, Helmut Marko and Jos Verstappen agree to a ‘public ceasefire’.

Following news of a probe into the team principal’s alleged controlling and inappropriate behaviour, Ecclestone allegedly urged his friend to resign.

Sources told F1 Insider that he warned his long-term pal that standing down would save him and his family from further damage.

Yet, the billionaire businessman, who ran F1 for over four decades, said everyone is ready to move on now.

He called Horner a “great healer” who was doing a “super job”.

“He has Geri’s support, and the whole team is doing well,” he added, adding that a few weeks has made a “big difference”.
