Max Verstappen says Christian Horner's possible return to Formula 1 is not his concern, but expects him to take a good opportunity if one arises.

Speaking to the Press Association, Max Verstappen said a possible Formula 1 return for former Red Bull team principal Christian Horner was not his problem or concern. Verstappen said Horner wanted to return and would take a good opportunity if one arose, but added that he did not know where Horner might return.

Verstappen credited Horner with having done good work, while saying he did not know how much of the rumours circulating about him were true.

On Red Bull's current atmosphere, Verstappen said he was pleased people were getting along and described the situation as less stressful. Ongoing tension between people was unpleasant, he said, and he preferred friendly relations between teams, even if they might be less exciting.
