Upon the recent news regarding Katherine Mond we have decided to end our relations and reject her sponsorship for the 2024 season.

We do not want to be in contract with someone facing such serious allegations and do not condone them in any way. Especially since the person coming forward about Monds past is in a relationship with our driver Max Verstappen.

Thank you all for your support!

Max let out a dissatisfied grunt as he showed his screen to Kyra and Charles, who were sitting next to him. They had just finished FP2 and were sitting in a quiet corner on the paddock, having some free time.

»It's a bit late.« Was all the Dutch driver had to comment on his teams statement to the whole Katherine scandal. After the talk he'd had with Christian he'd expect a more empathetic approach to it.

»Well, not everyone is Max Verstappen and post "Fuck Katherine Mond" an hour after the release of the article.« Kyra snorted at the memory and the chaos that had followed Max's actions.

During his and Lando's visit to cheer Kyra up, Max's managers, team principal and father had all called him, asking him why the fuck he'd post something like that. It had been pure comedy for the three other people in the room.

»And I still can't believe they made me delete that!« Max replied grumpily, throwing his hand up in confusion. »I was just saying the truth!«

»Yes, but Max-« Charles wanted to lecture him on media policy and proper procedure when it came to situations like these, but decided to abandon the attempt half way through. It would have no use. No media training in the world could stop Max from voicing his opinion loudly and proudly. »Honestly, you're right.«

Agreeing humming came from the man. Meanwhile Kyra was scrolling on his phone, but as soon as he noticed, Max ripped it out of her hand.

»Hey!«

»No, we said no social media for you!« Charles scolded her. »Not for a couple weeks at least.«

»But I want to know-«

»No. You don't.« Max, who was very familiar with the cruelty of people on the internet, muttered as he pushed his phone back into his pocket.

»Fine.« Kyra mumbled as she leaned against Charles, who immediately out his arm around her, pressing a kiss on her cheek.

Suddenly Max seemed very busy, getting up and looking around. When he felt two pairs of eyes on him, he said, »I think I should get back to the garage. Christian wanted to talk about something- car things... I think I should get to that.«

Without waiting for an answer he walked off, faster than necessary. Charles frowned, but just shrugged it off. »Weird.«

»No... It's not.« Kyra sighed, her eyes following Max as he walked down the pit lane. She felt guilt weighing down on her and with a sad smile she added, »I don't think he's over you yet. Seeing us together can't be easy for him.«
