Christian told told Sky in a post-race interview, “Checo has been a wonderful driver for us, certainly in ’21, ’22, ’23. He contributed to Max’s championship, obviously in ’21, constructors championships in ’22, ’23. And most of all, he’s a great guy."
The manager added, “He’s not enjoying the situation that he’s in at the moment. He knows the pressures of this business. We’re going to give him all the support that we can to the chequered flag in Abu Dhabi next weekend. And what he decides to do, that will be his decision at the end of the day.”
On the other hand, his teammate Max Verstappen won the drivers’ championship a week ago in Las Vegas.
