The Red Bull Motorsport Advisor has reacted to suggestions Max Verstappen could help teammate Sergio Perez secure second in F1’s Drivers’ championship against Lewis Hamilton.
Red Bull Motorsport Advisor Helmut Marko has made it clear that Max Verstappen will not assist Sergio Perez in securing second place in the F1 Drivers’ standings. Verstappen previously caused tension within the team when he refused to obey team orders and let Perez pass him during last season’s São Paulo Grand Prix. As a result, Perez lost the battle for second place in the championship against Charles Leclerc. Verstappen has stated that he believes it is not his responsibility to support his teammate, a sentiment that Marko supports. Marko also acknowledges that Hamilton has been a strong competitor for Verstappen this season and expects a tough fight at the upcoming Grand Prix.
