The calm environment that Max would like is a utopia
“If Horner remains in his position, Red Bull will implode”. In Bahrain Jos Verstappen he didn't mince words in expressing a prediction that is coming true. Adrian Newey, in fact, has expressed his intention to leave the Milton Keynes team with Ferrari which, as reported FormulaPassion.it is ready to get its hands on the aerodynamic wizard.
The Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf underlined that Jos Verstappen therefore seems to have some talent prophet since less than two months after what seemed like a slightly exaggerated prediction, this is starting to materialize starting from Newey's desire to abandon ship after the friction with team principal Christian Horner who tried to relegate the designer to the margins of the F1 project also for reasons related to the budget cap.
Max Verstappen in Australia he had said that he would like to honor the contract until the end of 2028 because it would mean that Red Bull would truly be a real family in which you can even disagree while still remaining members (of the family). The three-time world champion in Saudi Arabia exposed himself publicly to defend Helmut Marko's position within Red Bull, but in Melbourne he did not go any further: “I don't mention names”, answered the questions about who are the key figures without whom he would consider leaving Red Bull. On the Newey issue the Telegraaf adds that: “Newey's contribution to the genesis of the RB20 is not at all significant, but Adrian will take all the Red Bull know-how elsewhere. Newey's departure will not affect performance, but the environment is far from being as calm and peaceful as Max would like.”. A situation that only strengthens Toto Wolff's hopes of bringing the Dutchman to Mercedes if not in 2025 at least from 2026.
