Max Verstappen has dismissed concerns that he might consider leaving Red Bull, after last weekend’s Bahrain Grand Prix proved to be a turbulent day for the team.

Verstappen claimed the conversation was “about everything” and that “people can always see (such things) their own way,” but added that Horner had joined Vermeulen and Marko for the conversation given their united frustration over how the race had unravelled.

Max Verstappen refused to entertain speculation about his F1 future on Thursday, insisting he is “just focused on driving.” The four-time F1 world champion has only tasted victory once so far this season, in Japan, and finished a disappointing sixth last weekend in Bahrain.
