Internal competitiveness is important.“Capacity is for Verstappen also important because of rumors that it may be due to exit clausesrelated to the engine, operations from Red Bull Racing. "We want and need a competitive engine. That's what Max wants. However, there is no specific clause in his contract if we don’t have a Honda engine."

"Max is in the shape of his life,”He continues Marko. "He is the only one who can put pressure on Mercedes. I think Max would lead the championship in the same race car. His father plays a big part in why Max is so remarkable,He added Austrian. "People always say I’m solid, but what Max had to go through wasn’t easy. But the success proves it was right."
