Red Bull suspends driver Juri Vips for racism

This Tuesday, playing the Call of Duty Warzone video game, Juri Vips could be heard making racist comments during a live broadcast, calling another of the players “fucking black”, something that has caused Red Bull to take immediate action in this regard. .

The Formula 1 team published a statement confirming that its young driver had been suspended from all activities before carrying out a more exhaustive investigation.

“Red Bull Racing has suspended junior driver Juri Vips from all team duties with immediate effect, pending a full investigation into the incident,” the Milton Keynes outfit said in a post on its social media.

“As an organization we condemn insult of any kind and have a zero tolerance policy against racist language or behavior within our team.”

Vips quickly wrote on Instagram to “apologize for the offensive language used during a live video game broadcast today.”

“These words are totally unacceptable and do not reflect the values and principles that I hold,” the young driver wrote.

“I deeply regret my actions and this is not the example I want to set. I will fully cooperate with the investigation.”

As well as uttering the word “nigga”, Vips also made a homophobic comment, claiming that the color pink is for gays.

Vips has been part of Red Bull’s junior program since the end of 2018. He finished fourth in the F3 championship the following year, before graduating to F2, where he is currently competing in his third season.

Alongside his Formula 2 commitments, the Estonian has also worked as a test and reserve driver for Red Bull and its sister team, AlphaTauri, since the end of 2020, as well as doing regular simulator work for both teams.

Juri Vips made his F1 race weekend debut earlier this campaign when he took part in FP1 at the Spanish Grand Prix in the RB18.

The Estonian should return to competition at the Formula 2 round of the British Grand Prix. His team, Hitech Grand Prix, has yet to comment on the matter.
