Red Bull Boss Puts New Golden Boy Max Verstappen Above All, Firing One Demand to F1 World

Red Bull’s golden boy, Max Verstappen, has been turning heads this entire season with his tremendous performance that’s undeniably flawless. With his focus and consistent dedication, the Dutchman is climbing heights that only a few have reached in F1 history.

The Red Bull principal, Christian Horner, is always full of praise for their in-house star. Horner has always been Max’s supporter through thick and thin. He pushes the Dutchman to be his best and shows utmost trust and faith in the man to take the team to its former glory.

In an interview, the Red Bull boss shared his thoughts on the Dutch star. He claims that he is ‘outstanding’ and witnessing him showcase his skill set is ‘very special.’

As per motorsport.com, he said, “There’s been years of domination with Mercedes, but I think as an individual driver, probably yes. He’s won the most grands prix in a year now, within 22 races.”

Horner shared that Max has been undoubtedly ‘outstanding.’ Impressed by Verstappen, he said that the Dutchman never puts ‘wheel wrong.’ He said, “He’s been perfect throughout the season. It’s incredible the level of consistency that he’s been able to achieve.”

Highlighting how the Dutchman isn’t acknowledged as much, he put ahead a demand saying, “I actually think his achievements sometimes don’t receive the plaudits that they should, because I think actually, what we’ve witnessed this year, is an absolutely outstanding performance from a driver that is very much at the top of his game.”

Horner explained that to go after their unanimous goal, the team works aggressively with undivided attention. To follow their passion and the sport they love so much, they do their very best.
