Christian Horner has apologised for not being able to offer an update on his investigation during F1 testing in Bahrain.
The 50-year-old, who strongly denies the allegations made against him, remains under investigation by Red Bull's parent company after complaints were made by a female employee.
He's been present in the Red Bull garage as pre-season testing got underway this week in Bahrain.
But Horner opted against making any further comments on the investigation.

He said: “As you are well aware there is a process going on which I form part of, and as I form part of that process, I am afraid I cannot comment on it.”
When pressed further on whether he was aware of a rough timescale for a final verdict to be made, Horner apologised and explained again that he was not able to comment.
“I am dreadfully sorry but I really can’t comment on the process or the timescale," he added.
“Everybody would like a conclusion as soon as possible.
"But I am really not at liberty to comment about the process.”
He met with a specialist barrister at a secret location after the allegations were made public.
And Horner spoke to the media for the first time at Red Bull's car launch last week where he claimed it was "business as usual".
The Red Bull team principal admitted the whole situation had "been a distraction", but he had no plans to resign from his position while the investigation was ongoing.
Horner was sat alongside four other F1 team representatives in the press conference with McLaren chief executive Zak Brown calling for a swift resolution.

“Well the allegations are extremely serious,” said Brown.
“McLaren holds themselves and all the men and women at McLaren to the highest standards.
"Obviously, diversity and equality and inclusion are extremely important to us, our partners, to everyone in Formula 1.

"As FIA and Formula 1 has said, they need to handle it swiftly because I don’t believe these are the type of headlines that Formula 1 wants or needs at this time.
"I just think it’s important that it’s handled in a transparent way in which there is no doubt and no doubt whatsoever that it has been handled appropriately and whatever the conclusion is that that conclusion is handled in an appropriate, transparent manner."
