The Duchess of York appeared to offer Christian Horner some wise words as they caught up at the Bahrain Grand Prix yesterday.
The Red Bull boss, 50, has been at the centre of a scandal this week after flirtatious WhatsApp messages he apparently sent to a female colleague were leaked online - days after he was cleared of inappropriate behaviour in the workplace.
At yesterday's Grand Prix, Christian and his wife Geri, 51, put on a united front as they arrived hand-in-hand before exchanging a kiss in front of the cameras.
Zara and Mike Tindall, Peter Phillips, the Duchess of York and Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank were also in the crowd to watch Red Bull secure first and second place in the Bahrain Grand Prix.
Following their win, Sarah Ferguson, Princess Eugenie and Jack walked down to the track to congratulate the Red Bull team on their success.

The Duchess of York, who has faced her fair share of scandals during her time in the spotlight, appeared to be having a lively conversation with Christian as he listened in closely.
At one point, Sarah put a reassuring hand on Christian's arm as they exchanged some brief words.
The F1 boss then greeted Princess Eugenie, 33, by giving the royal a quick peck on the cheek.
After their brief conversation, Sarah placed a reassuring hand on Christian's torso as they parted.
For the event, Eugenie was wearing a black floral midi dress by All Saints with cheer floaty sleeves. Meanwhile, Sarah Ferguson opted for a light blue Gucci jacket and black trousers.
Later in the evening, Mike and Zara Tindall and her brother Peter Phillips also appeared on the racetrack to pose next to winner Max Verstappen's car.
The mother-of-three wore a white blazer by ME+EM, a miniature black leather clutch bag by Aspinal and some Superga white trainers.
Sarah Ferguson's appearance at the Bahrain Grand Prix comes as the Mail on Sunday revealed that the Duchess has been told that her skin cancer appears not to have spread.

Sarah, 65, received a devastating blow in January when doctors discovered a malignant melanoma during a second bout of reconstructive surgery following her breast cancer diagnosis last year.
The news came as a 'huge shock' to Prince Andrew's ex-wife but friends said she was determined to 'bounce back'.
A friend told the Mail on Sunday she had just learned that these were all 'free of cancer' and doctors believe there has been no spread of the disease
While she must continue to be vigilant and undergo regular 12-week check-ups, the news was the 'best possible outcome she could have hoped for' and her prognosis is good.

Christian Horner was cleared to continue as Red Bull head following an internal probe into 'inappropriate behaviour' by the F1 team's parent company, Red Bull GmbH. The 50-year-old has always denied the claims.
The Red Bull F1 boss initially broke cover at the Grand Prix on Saturday morning with no sign of his wife Geri Halliwell after his wife found out the texts were leaked as she was flying in a private jet.
An insider previously told the Mail it would be 'mayhem' if Geri showed her face at Saturday's Grand Prix.
Halliwell, who married the Red Bull team principal in 2015, went 'into meltdown' when she touched down in the Gulf state on a private jet on Thursday and discovered the bombshell messages had been plastered all over social media.
The 51-year-old singer has a son, Montague George Hector Horner, with Horner.
She also has a daughter, Bluebell Madonna, born in 2006, with former partner and screenwriter Sacha Gervasi.
