Jos Verstappen called former Red Bull F1 driver turned pundit Robert Doornbos a ‘headless chicken’ after he made claims about his son Max’s contract. The reigning world champion has been heavily linked with an exit from Christian Horner’s squad ahead of the 2026 season.

As Red Bull boss Christian Horner continues to make clear, Verstappen is under contract with the team through 2028. This allows Horner to dismiss the discussion around a potential Verstappen move as noise, as he did during the Austrian Grand Prix. However, as this former lawyer will tell you, there is always a way out.
