Jos Verstappen is poisoning his son's career, even if it isn't evident yet. If he doesn't watch out he will screw everything up resulting in the opposite of what he intends for him. This will lead to the permanent breakdown of their relationship. (IMHO)
Very true. As an Ex motor racing steward, Sporting Parents are the worst. Apparently all the rules are a conspiracy against they kid and don't apply.
Can imagine at go karting level it's a nightmare
Yes Karting, I was filling in for a steward at a club day meeting Where the steward was threatened at knife point and refused to steward their meetings.
Just a hint never drive your car to the track, always get a lift.
@@thegridgab ... its that crazy???!! 😮
Parents have to fight for their kids in Karting and it carries over
Clearly has but time to let go
My gut feeling is that Toto is playing along to help derail Red Bull, Toto won’t touch MV with a barge poll, but winding Jos and Christian and then ultimately affecting Max, is win, win, win 😅
If RedBull REALLY wants to solve their internal problems, they just gotta send Max to therapy. Seriously those daddy issues are yikes
You do sense there is something going on
@@thegridgab Seriously, it's like F1 drivers and tennis players are the majority of professional athletes who let their daddy issues have some bearing on their careers.
These guys can control a F1 car at 250 mph but they can't put limits to their own fathers
When I team managed, I actually cancelled a driver's drive because of an interfering father. They tried to sue, but did not get far as eventually it was deemed that the interference was detrimental to the business performance. Karting parents, and I found that mother's were as bad, were amongst the worst imo.
Good man yourself for taking a stand. Parents wrecked their kids motorsport future
Marko is one of those old types that shits himself, he needs to get away from the fumes and go garden with geuther and mattia
TL;DR
F1 is just karting with extra steps :D
with more carbon fibre
@@thegridgaband most importantly - more money
Thank You! I also don’t know why Max lets his daddy meddle so much.
Jenson Button's dad John Button always knew when to stay in the background
Even Special Needs adults do not bring their fathers to work.
Savage
Jos knows he was a failed driver. Max represents what he never was, and his envy drives him to unwittingly destroy Max's career... imo...
This phenomenom is common to all professional sports where huge sums of money are involved and talent identification starts at a young age. It is no different in football, tennis golf, basketball etc. Parents living their lives vicariously through talented offspring who also happen to be their meal tickets is a recipie for trouble no matter what sport is involved.
Max is attached at the hip with Jos.
Maybe long term too
So far so good tho. We don't see the whole picture, maybe Joos knows what he does. I might be horribly wrong though. Anyhow - we will see❤ God bless F1, my reason to kinda be
Maybe one day after he's retired, Max will release a biography. Then maybe we'll see
Jos is destroying max's career like he ended his own career in the 90's.
A parent’s job is to raise their children to be responsible adults and then retire. Job accomplished. There are times they may be asked for advice. The job then is to help their child think thru it on their own and make their own informed choices. I so agree with everything you have put forward here. I think there is one more aspect that may play a part. Since the dad has behaved in this way throughout his sons travels thru the path to F1, I believe part of Jos’s difficulty is that he wants to vicariously continue to have a career as as motorsport driver. He was not content with his own career. He wants to have Max’s as well. He is a controlling personality to the highest limit. It’s pretty obvious at this point that Max will not or is unable to put his foot down and say, “enough, dad”! Solution? Well, you could just let the whole thing go to its natural conclusion. RB could put their foot down and bar Jos from any RB territory. Max will have to stand on his own and stop the situation.
what happens when two middle aged fools are chasing the same bit of fluff
families are allowed inside the garage because the drivers are, however safe F1 has become, still risking their lives every race.
Report of a Dutch 🇳🇱 GP March the 10th 18h24
Although Christian Horner indicated in Jeddah that everyone in the racing team is on the same page, sources tell F1 insider that the team boss' days at Red Bull Racing are numbered. Horner only had the Thai shareholders on his side, but they have now opted for the Austrian camp, the medium reports.
The main characters of Red Bull Racing keep their jaws tight. It was Jos Verstappen, of all people, who indicated last Sunday that the current situation is driving the team apart. Jos 'The Boss' obviously wants the best for son Max and has therefore called for the departure of team boss Horner. According to Verstappen senior, the fuss surrounding Horner and the internal investigation distract from the activities on the track. The three-time champion has tied his fate to that of Helmut Marko and it seems that the Thai shareholders are now also changing tack.
Horner also thinks he can win without Verstappen, Newey and Ford'
Thailand sides with Austria
Multiple sources report to F1-Insider that Thai shareholders will now follow the advice of the Austrian minority. One of the reasons is reportedly the American market, which is very important for Red Bull. A number of influential women's rights activists are reportedly planning a boycott of Red Bull in the United States. In addition, Thai bosses are afraid that the female employee who filed the complaint against Horner in the coming days and take action against the rejected investigation.
'Exit for Australian GP'
It therefore appears that the unrest surrounding Horner is now reaching a climax and that could mean that he will leave Red Bull Racing in the foreseeable future. "Horner is apparently on the verge of losing the power struggle at Red Bull. According to well-informed sources, he will be fired before the next race in Australia," it said.
Jos and ramond are good friends he was jos manager when he was racing and knows max from a baby
Jos is pissed that his little girlfriend liked CH more than him.
Seb was not the same when he left red bull
I think you are skipping a step. How far in the sport would most of the drivers have come in F1 without their fathers? Many fathers have mortgaged their house or have made an equally ludicrous investment. The level to which fathers need to go in F1 is something you don't really see in most other sports. It is a sport you can't succeed in without significant investment. I know of no F1 drivers who would have made it without the full support of their fathers/family. This makes F1 stand out.
In a very real sense, we don't see Max racing, we see Max-son-of-Jos racing; at least that is how I think many F1 fathers see it.
And then there is character: we all have one, and they are not very changeable. We have to work with the one we have. Jos does not have the most easy character a person could have. It is mostly because of his character that Jos stands out amongst the fathers of F1 drivers. I think we can safely say that all fathers of F1 drivers are overinvested in the success of their sons.
Niki Lauda's family was against his idea to become a racer. Even though his parents were rich, they refused him in financial support, so Niki took large credit in a bank, if I remember correctly.
@@ReasonX3 Ah good one! I think he may be the exception. He was a very special man in any case.
I get your point and I agree to some extent but the one about 'many fathers mortgaging their house' has baffled me 😭 Most F1 drivers come from wealthy/well off backgrounds, so financial investment/trouble isn't really a factor at all compared to well... other forms of investment. Not saying there weren't any poorer fathers or families but it's just such an exception to the rule.
8:13 worst example of all. Sainz Sr, spends a lot of time stiring up the spanish press and playing teams politics, using influence and sponsors to benefit his son with mixed results.
And it's not just him, Carlos's cousin, mother and even friends of the family had chimed in the drama before
The reason things went down as badly as they did back in Toro Rosso was bacause Sainz Sr and Jos Verstappen are pretty much the same and couldnt stop buttering heads
Same in moto gp.
Wtf are you going on about? The relationship between a parent and their child is nobody's business. Not yours, not mine or anyone else's. It's like taking someone's inventory on their marriage but worse. WE...have never even met Jos or Max, let alone know enough to understand the reality of their relationship. Jos is no 'soccer mom'! He's very much enlightened to every mistake he made as an F1 driver and is determined that no one is ever gonna play his son, the same way they played him and if his importance has ever been questionable by those people who's opinions actually matter, unlike yours and mine, Jos's access to everything would not be what it is. Nothing applies to every situation in life. Max, Jos and Raymond Vermeulen are very much united as one in Max's best interest. That may not align with yours and mine but they really don't care and Max is NOT some feeble minded idiot, either. 🤨
The toilets in Bahrain are excellent.
Excellent feedback
@@thegridgab When they're not backing up, or doing a K Mag as it's now called post Jeddah 😊
@@thegridgab Idiocy aside, insightful video content, thank you.
How I see it Max should go to Indy car 🚗 his father Jos belongs in a nut house 🏡 AND Marko is ready for a old man home 🏠
Your just assuming things, gennerally I would agree with you but no word about what is happening at RedBull right now. No look into rb future or why Jos said this. Its just Jos = Bad
Max is not a 14yr old anymore so stay away jos you are sick
and here we go again ... vultures trying to farm views with negative shit ...
Not really though is it
correct you are alsso farming comments@@thegridgab
Jos is a parasite
Thought I said good things about Carlos Sainz Sr and Lawrence Stroll. Hardly negative
I think it is a bit of a mistake to think Jos is a Hinderance to Max. This whole affair started last season and was thought out and guided by Helmut Marko and will come to an end next Monday. It is actually quite smart to let your rogue das shout something so you don’t look like the idiot and manipulator yourself.
