Red Bull without Max Verstappen. This is the possible scenario that is increasingly emerging over the course of these days. The Verstappen's futureIn fact, never more than in this circumstance could he really be far from Red Bull, even more so hearing the words of team principal Christian Horner.
Horner has no doubts: “No one is indispensable”
The situation a Milton Keynes is not at all simple and, in this respect, Helmut's possible departure Marko it could be at the base of Verstappen's farewell. However, with two illustrious departures, Horner does not say he is worried and, indeed, in this respect, he knows that no man is essential. “No individual is bigger than the team. We have a phenomenal car and a seat (Perez's) presumably open next year, with probably 16 desperate drivers hoping to be picked. We all have a common interest in team performance. The team comes before each individual member."
“Our strength has always been the group”
Clear and precise words. The team principal knows about the unpleasant situation he is experiencing, especially following the investigation (which ended in nothing) carried out against him for 'inappropriate attitudes'. For the Briton, however, no one is indispensable (and, therefore, not even Verstappen). The strength of Red Bull, in fact, is not dictated by individuals but by the entire group: “If the team does not work in harmony, it is impossible to achieve results and performances of this kind. So, if an individual does not want to stay on the team Horner continued. we won't force it".
Does Horner send a clear message about Verstappen's Red Bull future?
Despite the chaos that has been generated over the future of Verstappen, who could really say goodbye to Red Bull following Marko's plausible farewell, Horner's position does not change. He wants and, from what it seems, will remain in the role of team principal to try to achieve new important results, already knowing the path to take. “The people who are at Red Bull do it because they want to be there and are passionate about what they do. This is the key that allows us to achieve exceptional results and this is what characterizes the Red Bull DNA. What we will do is continue what we have started for 20 years and we will try to do it for another 20 years" concluded Horner.
