Red Bull Formula 1 chief Helmut Marko has revealed crunch talks with Max Verstappen are set to take place at the team's headquarters to address the reigning world champion's criticisms.

Red Bull look far from their former dominance in 2025, with McLaren seemingly the class of the field and the Milton Keynes-based outfit trailing far behind.

Further issues have plagued the team in terms of personnel, too, following the decision to replace Sergio Perez with Liam Lawson for 2025.

Lawson has now left the team after just two races, with Yuki Tsunoda taking his place.

"This meeting should allow us to calmly address Max's wishes and criticisms," Marko told the Austrian outlet.

The 81-year-old also stated that Verstappen would air his grievances with the technical team to discuss the car, saying: "This meeting is primarily about Max sitting down with the technicians and going over the next steps."
