Red Bull could not stop world champion Max Verstappen leaving, team principal Christian Horner has admitted
, has warned that there is no guarantee the team can hang on to their three-time world champion Max Verstappen should he choose to leave, as the impact from another turbulent weekend for the team continues to be felt.
“It’s like anything in life, you can’t force somebody to be somewhere just because of a piece of paper,” he said. “If somebody didn’t want to be in this team, then we’re not going to force somebody against their will to be here. That applies whether it is a machine operator or a designer or someone in one of the support functions that runs through the business.
Verstappen’s future and a potential move to another team was only the latest crisis to hit the beleaguered Horner and his team over another weekend of turmoil for.
Marko subsequently met the Red Bull GmbH chief executive, Oliver Mintzlaff, and declared the matter had been cleared up and closed but it had already illustrated a schism at the heart of the team, one emphasised further when Verstappen’s father Jos launched his second attack on Horner, saying he believed the team principal should leave his role.
