A team probe this month saw the allegations dismissed.

But it was revealed today the woman, who has been suspended from her job at the team’s base in Milton Keynes, filed a grievance with the FIA and its ethics committee.

It is the third complaint to the FIA over Horner’s conduct since the start of February, it is claimed.

It is unclear if it will now launch its own probe.

Its boss, Mohammed Ben Sulayem, held an hour-long private meeting with Horner during the Bahrain GP last month.

Ex-driver Horner has said he wants to move on from the scandal, with ex-Spice Girl wife Geri Halliwell standing by him.

The accuser is appealing Red Bull’s ruling that backs Horner.

A source said: “She has not been allowed to see the whole of the report which cleared Horner and has no clarity as to why the inquiry reached its decision.

“A timetable for her appeal process is being drawn up.”

Horner’s spokesman said he had not seen the complete dossier either.

Red Bull said it was unaware of the complaint to the FIA.
