    Wow, so is this good or bad for Red Bull’s chances of keeping Max?

      Either he was told he’d be sacked if they lost max, or max said “hornyboy or me”

        I would guess the former then because I really don’t think Max gives a shit about Horner. It’s Jos that hates him, and I don’t think he sees eye-to-eye with Marko either. But Max just cares about the car.

          Max’s team protected Marko when the rumours from Horniers faction started flying that he’d be gone.

            I meant Marko doesn’t see eye-to-eye with Horner. As far as I know Max loves Marko.

      I’m pretty happy to see the Red Bull downfall.

      Happy to see companies that treat employees so badly suffer, a lot of the good people have left, and more will follow.

    Someone needs to relink the WhatsApp thread with him harassing that poor intern to show what fresh cunt he is. Very surprised he wasn’t sacked on the spot at the time.
