Earlier this month, Jack Plooij said on Ziggo Sport’s Racecafé that Max Verstappen signed a contract with Mercedes. This rumour was then firmly denied by Jos Verstappen, the father of the four-time world champion. Günther Steiner states in the Red Flags Podcast that he does not think Plooij would base such a statement on nothing, but does not seem to be convinced by the rumour going around. 


Former Haas team principal Guenther Steiner was not surprised by the crowd’s reaction to Red Bull Racing at the F1 75 event. In London, the Austrian team, Christian Horner and Max Verstappen did not receive the warmest of welcomes to say the least, but Steiner hardly believes it would be anything too big.


The age difference: the much talked about chasm that separates Ferrari’s new driver lineup. While Lewis Hamilton is in the twilight of his F1 racing years, Charles Leclerc is not yet in his prime. Former team boss, Guenther Steiner, has had his say in the matter and sees that the Monegasque’s youth is not the game changer many believe it to be.


Red Bull Racing admitted that the winter test in Bahrain did not go entirely as expected, with Max Verstappen also pointing out that there was still work to be done for his team. According to former Formula 1 team boss Guenther Steiner, the Dutch driver could become ‘difficult to manage’ should the team not start the new season with a competitive car.
