Marko: We'll decide on the squad after the summer break.
Max Verstappen will continue to race for Red Bull Racing next year, but who will be his teammate is an open question, since Yuki Tsunoda's contract expires at the end of the season. Red Bull motorsport advisor Helmut Marko said that the decision will be made after the summer break.
Helmut Marko: "Traditionally we conduct evaluations of our drivers after the summer break. At the moment nothing has been decided. We are assessing the results — both positive and negative.
As for Yuki, he has always been a protégé of Honda, so negotiations are underway with them. Let's see what comes of that.
Whoever becomes Max's next teammate must not try to beat him. He should give his all for himself and the team. But beating Max at the moment is impossible."
