[Saba Sports News] Despite finishing only fourth at the F1 Chinese Grand Prix, Max Verstappen sent a strong message to the Red Bull Racing team—this four-time world champion will not leave during the team’s low period. In response to speculation about him possibly transferring to Mercedes or Aston Martin, the Dutch driver firmly stated that he enjoys driving for Red Bull and has never considered other options. Red Bull team principal Christian Horner revealed to the media that Verstappen is more committed than ever to the car’s upgrades, spending most of his days in the simulator discussing setup options with engineers. Observers in the paddock have noted that Verstappen’s attitude has changed dramatically compared to last year, indicating a transformation. Some analysts believe that the Red Bull team will regain the early-season speed at the Japanese Suzuka circuit and compete fiercely with McLaren.
