Red Bull Racing are furious about the collision between Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen, but head advisor Dr Helmut Marko does realize that the two were simply fighting for a place as they both want to win.
Marko didn't point a finger at one of the two drivers, as he thinks both of them are equally guilty.
"We let our drivers race and then they do this," he ranted to Sky Sports F1.
"Unbelievable.
"They're both guilty because it was a racing incident."

The doc doesn't have any plans to tame both of the drivers though, as that would contradict what Red Bull stands for, according to Marko.
"Giving orders would go against our philosophy.
"We always let our drivers race each other.
"At Red Bull, we don't have a number one or number two, but we do expect them to take responsibility."
