Red Bull faces another controversy as it has come to light that Marko is being investigated for alleged leaks to the media about his colleague's recently concluded investigation.

Verstappen, who is known to have a close relationship with Marko, was asked about his feelings if Marko were to leave the team after securing pole position in Jeddah on Friday night.

The Dutch driver expressed his respect and loyalty to Marko, emphasizing his importance in his decision-making process both now and in the future. Verstappen highlighted the importance of keeping Marko and other key people within the team, as their absence could negatively impact his own situation.

He acknowledged Marko’s role in building the team alongside Dietrich Mateschitz and highlighted his loyalty and integrity.

Following the saga of Horner and tensions between Horner and Verstappen’s father, Jos, there are additional factors that may influence the three-time Formula 1 champion’s decision to stay at Red Bull.

Verstappen emphasized the importance of maintaining team cohesion and giving due respect to Marko for his contributions. He concluded by reiterating his belief that Marko should remain part of the team.
