Jos Verstappen thinks his earlier warning this season about Red Bull under Christian Horner’s ongoing leadership is bearing fruit. The father of three-time Formula One champion Max Verstappen stated at the time, “It can’t go on like this,” when the controversy surrounding Horner was at its height and Verstappen was calling for change. Red Bull is going to blow up.” Three senior Red Bull figures have stated that they will be leaving the team over the next few months, after the comment.
“Yeah, this is exactly what I warned about,” the 52-year-old said to Autosport.com. “But there are too many people [who decide to leave], and Max gets asked about it every time and so on. So yeah, I think it’s just not right what’s happening.” Horner has repeatedly insisted that Red Bull has the depth of talent on the team to handle the departures, even though Jos seems unsure. “He always makes a point!” Jos said with a small smile.

Jos Verstappen has given his reaction to a number of key Red Bull personnel leaving the team in recent months, insisting: “This is what I warned about.” Jos, father of Red Bull’s three-time F1 world champion Max Verstappen, has been embroiled in a feud with Red Bull F1 boss Christian Horner for most of the 2024 season.
The division within the team, with Red Bull adviser Helmut Marko supporting Verstappen Snr., was unearthed at the first race of the season in Bahrain in March amid the investigation surrounding Horner’s alleged “inappropriate behaviour” towards a female colleague. Horner was cleared, twice, of any wrongdoing. Verstappen Snr. stated at the time that Red Bull – who won 21 out of 22 races last year in the most dominant season in F1 history – would “explode” if Horner remained in charge and the recent departures of design guru Adrian Newey, sporting director Jonathan Wheatley and strategy chief Will Courtenay back up Verstappen’s belief.
