Scandal in the world of Formula 1: Verstappen may leave Red Bull and join Mercedes
Despite having the superior car and team in Formula 1, as demonstrated by Verstappen and Sergio Perez with their victories in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia, the Dutch star may leave Red Bull and join Mercedes in 2025, filling the vacancy left by Lewis Hamilton, who is going to Ferrari.
After a chaotic weekend of incidents at Red Bull, only Verstappen knows for sure if he will leave and take his team to Mercedes. The internal situation at Red Bull is in conflict, and Christian Horner plays a central role in this plot, fighting for his career and reputation. This ongoing saga, aptly described as “a persistent problem,” continues to create tension, especially now that the suspended female team is appealing the outcome. In other words, this problem still persists within the organization.
Despite this, Horner and his wife Geri Halliwell showed love and harmony in public during the event in Jeddah, which is admirable considering the circumstances. However, the lingering question is: will this public display be enough to withstand the outcome of the appeal, if the RBR employee wins?
As expected, rumors spread after the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, another race dominated by Red Bull, just like the previous one in Bahrain. These victories will likely continue until fate intervenes.
Among the increasingly unbelievable reports circulating, the latest rumor suggests that Horner and Marko will be fired by Red Bull. Of course, these rumors spread like wildfire on social media, where uninformed people gather to share absurd conspiracies.
However, after a Red Bull shareholders meeting in Dubai, there were no changes in the team leadership or personnel. A team spokesperson, on behalf of Horner, reassured everyone that all is well at Red Bull: “As Christian stated, he appreciates the unwavering support of the shareholders, and that remains true.”
Likewise, Marko seems to be secure in his position. However, he did little to ease the tension at Red Bull by commenting on reports of his own downfall. In an interview with De Telegraaf, the Austrian said: “I hope all of this is resolved as soon as possible.”
“Honestly, I considered leaving at the end of last year, but it is important to acknowledge the legacy of Dietrich Mateschitz. We must remember his ideas and the path they have taken us on, as we owe it to him,” Marko stated about Dietrich Mateschitz, the individual who had the vision and financial resources to transform the Red Bull empire in Formula 1 to its current state.
Regarding Red Bull’s strategy and Marko’s future, he revealed: “We have found that these rumors were spread without any legal basis. I will not face suspension. Our goal is to win the world championship. For that, we will need to put in a lot of effort.”
“I am truly grateful for Max’s loyalty. I was really impressed. At the moment, we are not going to Mercedes together,” Marko added. Mischievous doctor! However, this may imply that “they” (referring to Marko and Max) may consider doing so in the future, when the “right” moment arises.
In addition, Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff is more than willing to make accommodations for Max Verstappen. Does this also mean accommodations for the Verstappen team, which includes Marko, Jos ‘The Boss’ Verstappen and his entourage? It seems that when Max leaves, the other two and their associates will also leave, at least for now…
