I'll focus on driving. 251 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:11,160 And then, you know, you don't need to think about any other scenarios. 252 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:12,760 We just worry about you. 253 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,420 The thing is, he cannot answer the question 254 00:16:17,460 --> 00:16:20,080 about why is Marko saying what he's saying, 255 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:21,920 because it gives the game away. 256 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,560 He can't answer any of the questions about his future. 257 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,180 The fact that he can't answer it 258 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,440 means there is some semblance of truth to it. 259 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:32,320 Yeah. 260 00:16:32,820 --> 00:16:34,780 Course there is. He's got an exit clause. 261 00:16:35,780 --> 00:16:38,900 There's a lot of chat about Max having an exit clause. 262 00:16:38,940 --> 00:16:40,240 Is that true? 263 00:16:40,900 --> 00:16:43,860 I think there are certain criteria within his agreement 264 00:16:43,900 --> 00:16:47,160 that... that there's certain benchmarks that we have to achieve. 265 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:51,820 That will be what, you know, dictates the outcome of whether he stays or not. 266 00:16:53,220 --> 00:16:56,280 So it's really crucial to turn things around. 267 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:02,200 I don't wanna let McLaren beat us in either championship, so... 268 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,980 That would be a big disappointment if that were to happen. 269 00:17:05,020 --> 00:17:05,880 Yeah. 270 00:17:06,660 --> 00:17:09,580 But it's much worse than anybody had expected. 271 00:17:11,220 --> 00:17:13,380 The relationship between Christian and Jos Verstappen, 272 00:17:13,420 --> 00:17:16,680 Max's father and essentially his manager, 273 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:17,820 is terrible. 274 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,340 Let's just say they don't see eye to eye and they haven't for some time. 275 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:29,260 The Verstappens hold a lot of power within the corridors of Red Bull Racing. 276 00:17:30,120 --> 00:17:35,320 If he determines that things aren't going in the direction that benefits his son, 277 00:17:35,360 --> 00:17:37,680 then he'll move to extricate him. 278 00:17:38,900 --> 00:17:40,500 That's gonna get the board shaking. 279 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,600 Do you think Christian's worried about the rumors? 280 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:53,920 I don't think Max was built to finish... What was it? Sixth last race. 281 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,000 I know he's got an exit clause in his contract, 282 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,740 so I would imagine he would jump if he can. 283 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:05,780 Red Bull doesn't seem to be a very happy place at the moment. 284 00:18:05,820 --> 00:18:10,680 Everyone seems to have their knives out for each other inside that racing team. 285 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,780 But he comes off so arrogant. I'm sure he sees that as no big deal. 286 00:18:14,820 --> 00:18:17,340 But when you put 'em all together and look at how they're doing, 287 00:18:17,980 --> 00:18:19,260 it looks like a big deal to me. 288 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,760 Max, Norris behind. 289 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,820 Agh, it's super slippery to drive. 290 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:31,720 I can't hold this much longer. 291 00:18:36,220 --> 00:18:38,220 Each and every race that goes by, 292 00:18:38,260 --> 00:18:41,280 there is pressure from every angle. 293 00:18:44,740 --> 00:18:47,840 Lando Norris has squeezed ahead of Max Verstappen. 294 00:18:48,420 --> 00:18:49,560 What the fuck? 295 00:18:50,580 --> 00:18:52,760 Okay, Yuki, so two laps to go. 296 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,540 The pace is incredibly slow. 297 00:18:55,580 --> 00:18:57,660 It's just ridiculous. 298 00:18:58,860 --> 00:19:01,920 Max Verstappen has to settle for fourth place. 299 00:19:02,460 --> 00:19:04,560 Hard luck today.
