Jos Verstappen goes against Max’s demands as Red Bull and Christian Horner attacked

Jos Verstappen, father of Formula 1 driver Max Verstappen, has expressed concern and frustration after Red Bull’s poor performance at the Dutch Grand Prix. Despite Max’s strong start, McLaren’s Lando Norris took the lead and won by a significant margin, closing the gap in the drivers’ standings to 70 points.

Jos Verstappen is worried that Red Bull’s struggles will cost his son the championship, urging team principal Christian Horner to take immediate action.

Max Verstappen, however, remains calm and composed, attributing the poor performance to a “bad weekend” and emphasizing the need for improvement without panicking.

He acknowledges that the last few races haven’t been ideal, but trusts his team to address the issues.

Jos Verstappen, on the other hand, is more critical, calling the situation “serious” and questioning Horner’s decisions, such as reusing old car parts. He also hints at the negative impact of Adrian Newey’s departure from the team. Jos believes Red Bull has taken the wrong direction and needs to introspect and make changes before it’s too late.

The article highlights the contrasting reactions of Max and Jos Verstappen to Red Bull’s struggles, with Max staying focused on improvement and Jos demanding urgent action from the team leadership.

The situation raises concerns about Max’s chances of winning a fourth consecutive world title, with McLaren’s Norris closing in on the lead.
