Marko: I won't be surprised if Max leaves.
In Qatar, Max Verstappen said that if he doesn't like the racing under the 2026 regulations, he will walk away. Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko believes those words should be taken seriously.
Helmut Marko: "That would be too early a retirement for him, but the statement should be taken seriously.
For Max it's important to feel good and enjoy himself. He has already achieved a lot. Max is not the sort of person who wants to repeat Schumacher's and Hamilton's records.
I wouldn't be surprised if one day he comes and says, 'Thanks, that's it.' "
