“We are all dissatisfied with the current situation. Nobody wants to gloss over that,” Mintzl♋aff told .

He was asked w🦋hether he was afraid to lose Verstappen, and replied: “No. I'm convinced that he w💖ill continue to take the long road he has taken with Red Bull so far.

“This is ෴the only way we can be successful again. Aꦏnd we will.

“A long-term partnership also includes sticking together i﷽n difficult times.”
