Marco: I’m trying to read less about all these rumors

The press continues to discuss the situation at Red Bull, and this topic is surrounded by new rumors, but Helmut Marko made it clear that the situation is returning to normal, at least as far as his relations with the Thai co-owners of the company are concerned.

“I’m flying to Japan,” Marco said in an interview with the Austrian sports portal Laola1. – The picture is clear for Thai shareholders, they are satisfied with everything. Whether there will be more news, or whether there will be no news, I have no idea. But this is a very complex subject that is difficult to understand.”

But Red Bull’s motorsport advisor chose not to answer a direct question about his personal prospects: “I would say there are some discussions and negotiations going on, but my immediate supervisor remains Red Bull director Oliver Mintzlaff. And now we have more serious concerns than the question of what I do…”

Marco also did not address the topic of Max Verstappen’s possible departure from the team, with which he has already won three titles: “I don’t think anyone is afraid of this at the moment. Maybe the situation was different two weeks ago. But unlike some, I’m trying to read less about all these rumors because I’m sure it doesn’t help matters overall.

This is exactly what I am trying to explain to our people: for the time being it is also better for them not to read anything about these topics. And if anyone has any questions, any team member can always call me.”
