The three-time Formula One world champion, Max Verstappen seems like there is a key to the ‘market’ if we pay attention to the rumours. Rumors about his departure from Red Bull, where he has a contract until 2028, have been revived with the announced departure of Adrian Newey from the team, but have not stopped since the internal war began in February following accusations of “inappropriate conduct” toward an employee in director Christian Horner, exonerated after an internal investigation.
On Thursday at Media Day in Miami he said that Red Bull is his home, but he ended his press conference by joking that you never know what life will bring and you should never say never.
“My future is in Red Bull. Money is not going to be a differentiating factor for me when it comes to going somewhere because I’m happy with what I’m earning now,” warned Mad Max.
“It’s about performance. It’s always about performance at the end of the day. At the moment I can say that I want to stay with the team because I believe in the project we have. But at the end of the day, in sports, but also well in life “You never know what will happen in the future.”
“I think it’s always very important to stay calm and concentrate on the work. At the end of the day, we need to have the fastest car. That’s what I’ve always demanded. So, basically, everything goes on as before. Right now, “Very focused on what we have to do. Winning is a big help,” he concluded.
The Dutchman also tried to minimize the consequences of Newey’s departure, which, on the other hand, was a heavy blow for Red Bull. “Of course, Adrian has a very important role in Red Bull’s successes. But over time his role has changed a bit and I think a lot of people don’t understand what he does now. I’m not saying he doesn’t even what, but his role has evolved. Many competent people have joined the team and strengthened it,” he told a crowd of reporters.
“Obviously I would prefer him to stay because we always rely on his experience, but I am convinced that the rest of the technical team is very, very strong,” he added.
