In the lead-up to the Silverstone race weekend, much was said about Red Bull Racing’s future. In interviews with GPBlog and others, team principal Christian Horner addressed the second seat alongside Max Verstappen.

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has said Max Verstappen intends to stay with the team for next year despite speculation about a move to Mercedes which would shake up Formula 1.

"It's definitely interesting. I would obviously love to [drive the Red Bull car], out of curiosity, go and have a look for myself," he shrugged. "Max in the Red Bull is very fast. It's his car and he drives it to the absolute limit. It's a more efficient car in high-speed corners. It's a faster car, but it's apparently hard to exploit most of it.
