Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko says he has "great concern" about Max Verstappen's future at the team and described their performance at the Bahrain Grand Prix as "very alarming".
Verstappen salvaged sixth place in Sunday's race when it looked like he would score less than a handful of points, overcoming pitstop issues and handling problems throughout the race.
The Dutchman is still only eight points behind championship leader Lando Norris and five adrift of race-winner Oscar Piastri in the world championship, but Red Bull's car has proved problematic and largely adrift of McLaren's pace so far this season.
