Red Bull Racing Formula 1 advisor Marko Next on the Chopping Block
Amidst ongoing controversy surrounding Red Bull Racing team boss Christian Horner, the spotlight now shifts to Helmut Marko, the team’s motorsport adviser. An internal investigation looms, potentially leading to Marko’s suspension.
According to a source close to Red Bull, Marko’s suspension is being considered as part of the disciplinary process. Marko himself acknowledges the possibility but asserts his autonomy in decision-making. Yet, concerns persist about maintaining team unity amidst the turmoil.
Marko’s influential role within Red Bull, overseeing the young driver program and integral in Max Verstappen’s recruitment, is undeniable. However, uncertainties arise following the passing of co-owner Dietrich Mateschitz in 2022, diminishing Marko’s stronghold within the team. The situation escalates as Jos Verstappen warns of potential team implosion if the controversy persists under Horner’s leadership.
Was Helmut behind the leaked Horner emails? Is he stirring the pot between Jos Vertstappen and Horner?
We’ll know soon enough.
But for now, this is one 80 year old who needs to let go.
