Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has said Max Verstappen intends to stay with the team for next year despite speculation about a move to Mercedes which would shake up Formula 1.

Max Verstappen had dominated headlines – more so than usual – in the build-up to this weekend’s British GP. As links between the Dutchman and Mercedes persist, Christian Horner has responded to the speculation surrounding his marquee driver.

Red Bull has to keep in mind that it will face a future without Max Verstappen at some stage but the intention is for him to still be with the team in 2026, says team principal Christian Horner.
