If it is up to Christian Horner, Max Verstappen will never be traded for another driver. The Red Bull Racing team boss has been explaining that Verstappen still amazes him time and again.

Horner continues to amaze

In an interview with Formule1.nl Horner let it be known that Verstappen is still not finished growing. The Dutchman performed very well in 2021, which eventually earned him his first world title. Despite the title, it doesn't mean Verstappen is done, as Horner said: "He never feels like he's done.

"Max is still learning and getting better. I find that so exciting to see as well," Horner revealed. The Brit says there is no other driver the team would rather work with than Verstappen.

Verstappen remains loyal to Red Bull

Immediately after winning his first world title in Abu Dhabi, Verstappen said he would like to stay at Red Bull for another ten to fifteen years. His father Jos Verstappen sees his son staying with the Milton Keynes-based team for the rest of his career.
