Ray Vermeulen, Verstappen’s manager, met with Horner, as reported by PA Media. Mohammed Ben Sulayem, the president of the FIA, requested the world champion to openly support Horner last weekend.
There are rumours that the driver may depart the Verstappens before his current contract expires in 2028 because to the apparent breach between the team and the driver. According to reports, he has the option to leave the team if Red Bull motorsport consultant Helmut Marko decides not to stay on. “I won’t stand in Max’s way,” he stated to F1 Insider.
In the meantime, Horner has threatened to sue a magazine for publishing articles about Red Bull’s probe into him. The newspaper had previously published allegations on Toto and Susie Wolff, the CEO of the F1 Academy and the principal of the Mercedes team, respectively.
Dino Beganovic, a young driver for Ferrari, has explained what went wrong when he was overtaken by the pack at the beginning of the Formula 3 feature race on Saturday. On his category debut, the rookie had taken the lead.
He remarked, “It was a nightmare.” The car was stuck in first gear all the way to turn two for an unknown cause. Although we don’t currently know why, we are definitely investigating it.
By the end of the 22-lap race, Beganovic had climbed back to 13th place after starting 30th and last. He said, “The pace was just amazing the entire race.” “We’re taking that to Melbourne because the car felt fantastic here in Bahrain and we had so much potential for everyone to see.
Oliver Oakes, the principal of the Hitech team: “I thought (Aron) was brilliant.” He made me laugh at the podium when he apologised to the boss for running wide at the final corner during the Safety Car restart, costing him two positions. After that, he received five seconds for speeding in the pits, but I told him it didn’t matter because you were excellent everywhere.
