Max Verstappen has clearly indicated to Red Bull that he remains committed to the team despite the fallout following Christian Horner ’s departure. On Wednesday, the 51-year-old, who had been at the helm since 2005, was sacked from his role as team principal and CEO with immediate effect.

Max Verstappen ’s manager Raymond Vermeulen insists Christian Horner ’s sacking “changes nothing” regarding the Dutchman’s commitment to Red Bull Racing.

Martin Brundle believes Max Verstappen is likely to stay at Red Bull next season following the news that Christian Horner has been relieved of his duties as the team’s F1 CEO.
