Jos Verstappen has been a vocal critic of Christian Horner for months now and gave a dramatic assessment of Red Bull's situation after son Max finished sixth in Monaco
Jos Verstappen declared Red Bull 's period of dominance over as he called for change at his son's Formula 1 team.
Lando Norris won in Miami at the start of this month and pushed him all the way two weeks later at Imola. And on Sunday Charles Leclerc won an F1 race for the first time in two years while Red Bull struggled throughout the entire Monaco Grand Prix weekend. And his father Jos is clearly unhappy with the situation. Speaking to Dutch outlet De Telegraaf, Verstappen Snr took an indirect swipe at Horner and suggested change is needed for Red Bull to get themselves back into a position of power.
"Something really needs to happen there. Red Bull needs to find out where this problem is coming from, because it is clear that teams like Ferrari and McLaren are getting closer. Max has still been able to mask that somewhat, but the big difference with Sergio Perez is becoming more and more obvious."
