In Bahrain, Jos Verstappen called on Horner to resign, otherwise the team would be destroyed. On Wednesday in Jeddah, Max was asked what he thought of his father’s words.
Max Verstappen: “I’m a driver, I don’t know what’s happening at the top. My task within the contract is to achieve maximum results. That’s what I’ll focus on.
In Bahrain everyone was talking about leaving it behind and I hope to have a quieter weekend here.
Yos said what he thinks. I don’t really care if I’m on one side or the other, I’m focused on results. As my father’s son, it would be strange for me to be on the other side, but I don’t want to talk about what happens outside the circuit. We have a great car and we hope for a great year.
I didn’t always agree with what was happening in Formula 1, but everything can be agreed upon. You can always find a compromise, even if you don’t agree with it.
As far as I know about karting, my father is very open-minded. He’s not a liar, that’s for sure.
Moving to Mercedes? We cannot predict the future. I don’t think anyone could have predicted that Lewis would move to Ferrari. That’s how it is in my life. You never know what will happen, what you will experience, what is happening around you that could affect you.
You can never be 100% sure that everything will be exactly the same. And I approach my life that way, but I don’t think about it too much. I am relaxed and calm. Like I said, I’m very happy in the team. The results are clear, there is no reason to leave.”
