I think Jos is speaking for max a lot more than people think. He’s just taking the blowback.

I, for one, hate RBR, and am very much enjoying the drama.

He's getting himself involved in it with the strong statements about Helmut and Jos. Seems like his bluff will be called sooner than later.


It may not be a bluff if he really does have an exit clause in his contract that kicks in if Marko is gone.

Don't see how its a bluff. If he has the exit clause in his contract, if they despise Horner, and with new regs in 2yrs, this would be the best time for Max to jump elsewhere at conclusion of 2024/2025, especially since Merc has an open seat.

I wasn’t saying he doesn’t have a clause in his contract, I think the idea of him leaving Red Bull at the end of the year or even sooner if Helmut was expelled would be one of the craziest things to happen.

All that being said, Helmut and the entire C suite of Red Bull just walked in to track hand in hand and smiling.

Luxembourg news outlet RTL says Horner and Red Bull teamed up to provide the chick a million euro severance payoff.


Meanwhile, there's a giant missing his vest this morning:

No way he leaves before season is over... He's be forfeiting his 4 consecutive title.

He would leave after this season and go to Merc, where they have an open seat.

I agree, but with a statement as strong as he made about Helmut it would make sense. Basically said if helmut isn’t here neither am I.

Watching the f2 race on delay, fittipaldi pulled off a double overtake for the lead. Absolutely incredible racing.

Marko is an ex-driver, isn't he?

They were talking about it on the pre race show earlier. Sounds like there’s still drama.

I said from the start this was a nothing burger. It was just normal F1 contrived drama. It gets press to maybe help with ratings.

Max is not going to leave and destroy his empire that RB has built for him to break records. And neither is Horner. That would be stupid.
