Afterall, he still seems to exert influence on the current F1.When asked by Swiss newspaper Blick "Will Red Bull lose World Championship points in 2021?", he answered "It will get worse!" Red Bull's public statement on the matter saw the team express 'shock' and was willing to work with the FIA to sort out the discrepancies. In the meantime, a letter written to the FIA by McLaren was leaked in which the team requested for a sporting penalty. The letter : "The overspend breach, and possibly the procedural breaches, constitute cheating by offering a significant advantage across technical, sporting and financial regulations. The FIA has run an extremely thorough, collaborative and open process. We have even been given a one-year dress rehearsal (in 2020), with ample opportunity to seek any clarification if details were unclear. So, there is no reason for any team to now say they are surprised." It read: "The bottom line is any team who has overspent has gained an unfair advantage both in the current and following year's car development. We don't feel a financial penalty alone would be a suitable penalty for an overspend breach or a serious procedural breach. There clearly needs to be a sporting penalty in these instances, as determined by the FIA."

Red Bull boss anoints Max Verstappen as most talented driver team has ever had

In an interview with , Red Bull boss Christian Horner anointed Max Verstappen as the most talented driver to have raced for the team. He talked about Verstappen's first race in Span and how it was unbelievable to see a driver put together such a weekend. He also talked about how in 2015 Verstappen pulled off some audacious moves on fellow drivers and showed he was in a different league. Horner said: “I’ve never seen anything like it (the win in Spain in 2016), what we witnessed that day was something special. The great thing is he is just open to pushing himself in all areas, he always feels there’s more to be had. He is quite clearly the most talented driver that I think we have had in one of our cars. What stood out was Spa (in 2015), when he drove round the outside of Felipe Nasr. I thought: ‘This boy is properly brave, committed and quick.’ You saw it that season: he was a shining star. It was evident immediately he was a prodigious talent.” Verstappen will look to level the longstanding record of and of most wins (13) in a season by winning the US GP this weekend.
