Horner conducts clear-the-air talks with Team Verstappen

Verstappen will address the media in Jeddah tomorrow, following an extraordinary start to the 2024 season which has taken the attention away from Red Bull’s on-track dominance.

Relations have been strained between Horner and Verstappen’s camp, with a feisty exchange with the driver’s father, Jos, filmed at Red Bull’s hospitality suite at last weekend’s Bahrain Grand Prix.

Verstappen Sr was also filmed holding talks with Mercedes boss Toto Wolff, raising the possibility of a shock move for Verstappen to Mercedes.
