Max Verstappen’s father, Jos, has spoken about Red Bull Racing team boss and CEO Christian Horner again.

Ahead of the 2024 Formula 1 season, it was reported that Horner is under investigation for alleged inappropriate behaviour.

The 50-year-old has always denied any wrongdoing and was cleared after an internal investigation led by an 'external, specialised lawyer'.

Earlier in the week, it was claimed that the woman who accused Horner of 'inappropriate behaviour' has been suspended by Red Bull.

Speaking recently to the Daily Mail, Jos said: “I sympathise with the woman, with all that she went through, but we will see what happens.

“I think it's a bit too late for that now. If that's what he wants, fine, but I don't think it will be possible. I don't want to talk too much more as it will create problems.”

He added: “But the most important thing for me is that Max is happy, that's what counts for me, I just want him to be happy.

“But all these things that are going on are having an influence on Max. He was third in the first practice, and all we hear about is Horner and what happened with his situation.

“In the press conference Horner gave the other day it was all about him and his problems when we should be talking about Max, the car, his performance and the race.

“I've already said I think it is causing problems if he stays.”

Verstappen senior said it is too late for Horner to say ‘leave me alone’.

He said: “I think it's too late for Christian to say 'leave me alone' but he has the support of the Thai owner so I think he will stay for the rest of the season.

“I said it would bad if he stayed, it really isn't good for the team, this whole situation.”
