Press conferences Saudi Arabia: Horner to show up, no Verstappen

No Max Verstappen Wednesday at the F1 press conference ahead of the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix, but a day later Christian Horner will be at the table. No doubt the Red Bull Racing team principal will be asked there again about the allegations concerning his person and his future at the team.

Among the drivers, Lance Stroll, Charles Leclerc, Nico Hulkenberg, George Russell, Yuki Tsunoda and Valtteri Bottas will turn up to look ahead to the weekend in Jeddah. So, besides Verstappen, other world champions Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso also only need to stop by the 'square' in the paddock.

On Thursday, it is the turn of Bruno Famin (Alpine), Mike Krack (Aston Martin), James Vowles (Williams) and the aforementioned Horner. It is expected that the 50-year-old Briton will only answer race-related matters, as was the case in Bahrain last week.
