In June of this 12 months, Yuri Pips employed the N word when streaming a online video match stay on Twitch. Purple Bull Racing responded quickly to this.
The Red Bull-backed F2 driver was suspended from reserve and simulator obligations with the F1 crew, and was subsequently taken out entirely from Purple Bull’s junior driver software.
Nonetheless, Yuri Pips was held back by Hitech GP to compete in this year’s FIA-F2 championship.
Helmut Marko admitted that the backlash from the media confident Red Bull to lower ties with Yuri Bips.
“The British media unleashed this sort of a shock that Pink Bull Racing had to fire him,” Marko mentioned in an interview with Motorsport.com.
“Personally he’s 21 and I imagine he is apologized. But what bothers me is what occurred all through a silly online video recreation for the reason that they have almost nothing to do in the afternoon.”
“I do not realize how you can do far more than two minutes, but it is the youthful people. I are unable to enable it. Max also[Verstappen]is in Sim Racing “.
Is Pink Bull’s determination on Yuri Bips honest in contrast to the deficiency of motion taken when Max Verstappen used the term “Mongolian” against Lance Stroll a couple of decades ago to denigrate him? When asked if, Helmut Marko said the two cases ended up not comparable.
“There is certainly nothing to compare it to,” explained Helmut Marko.
“It is also about the basic progress of both of those as people.”
“Max has often been at the forefront of this field. Definitely, the force on Bips from the media and sponsors has been so terrific that motion was desired.”
Assessing Red Bull’s latest pool of youthful talent, Helmut Marko proposed that Dennis Hauger, the Norwegian F2 driver who received the F3 title past period, if his performances justify such a go, singled him out as the next youthful prospective in line for marketing to F1.
“Dennis Hauger dominated F3 in an remarkable way,” said Helmut Marko.
“Right now he is experienced ups and downs in F2, he is not dependable. Effectiveness and nothing at all else is the deciding component. It could transform.”
“Somebody who thought they could do it out of the blue isn’t going to, and vice versa. So it can be hard to forecast.”
