Trophies stolen from Formula 1 team Red Bull’s factory have been found dumped in a lake
LONDON – Some of the trophies stolen from the factory of Formula One team Red Bull have been have been found in a lake after being spotted by a member of the public.
More than 60 trophies were reported missing from the factory at Milton Keynes, southern England, on Dec. 6 after approximately six men used a vehicle to ram the front entrance.
Police say “about 20 trophies have been recovered” from a lake near Sandhurst, some 70 miles (112 kilometres) away, on Monday.
Red Bull won the Formula One constructors’ and drivers’ championships from 2010-2013 and team principal Christian Horner said it will probably now limit access to the factory.
Horner said the trophies’ “value to the team is of course extraordinarily high … but their intrinsic value is low.”
