Marko explains Red Bull's difficulties, Perez reacts to retirement rumour

Talking to Total-Motorsport, Helmut Marko underlined that Max Verstappen finishing in P2 in Singapore could be considered a 'victory' for the Dutchman. The top advisor also explained why they have a disadvantage compared to their rivals, McLaren, because of the team's wind tunnel. Moreover, the Austrian also believes that Sebastian Vettel will not return to Formula One as a driver, even as the former world champion was many times rumoured to join Audi in German media.

In terms of Sergio Perez, after rumours surfaced about the Mexican driver to announce his retirement, he made his position clear on the matter on social media. 'Checo' posted on X a scene from the movie "The Wolf of Wall Street" to debunk that theory.

Jos Verstappen also posted on X about Christian Horner. The former F1 driver was annoyed by the team principal's comments after the Singapore GP, and said "Cut the stupid crap," referring to that the correlation between the simulator and the real car is not correct, and therefore, the simulator should not be trusted. Moreover, Verstappen Sr also called the penalty his son received from the FIA for swearing at a press conference "ridiculous".

Talking to The Times, seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton has opened up about his mental health struggles he experienced from an early age. "I think it was the pressure of the racing and struggling at school. The bullying. I had no one to talk to," the Briton shared.

The driver with the most wins in the competition's history also talked about settling down and starting a family in the future.
