Max Verstappen has revealed his intention to stay with the team till the end of the contract.

There has been an upheaval at Red Bull ever since the start of February as the team is surrounded by speculations and controversy. The starting point was when the team principal Christian Horner was accused of inappropriate and controlling behavior, from there onwards the unrest was set in motion. The internal politics and power struggles going on at Red Bull, it didn’t take much time for speculations about Max Verstappen’s possible move to other team to arise.

However, the Dutchman has stayed firm on his decision to stay with the team. Ex-F1 world champion with Red Bull, Sebastian Vettel, was asked about the ongoing drama and possibility of Verstappen leaving. He believes there is no reason for Verstappen to make a switch when the situation is assessed with a sporting perspective.

Red Bull has become unbeatable for the past three years. With their rate of winning, it is difficult for any driver from another team to come close to winning a world championship. Verstappen has claimed three championships in a row now, and with their new challenger RB20, there is reason for him to slow down. From the perspective of winning Red Bull is dominating and plans on doing so, hence Red Bull is the best option for the Dutchman.
