While Daniel Ricciardo raced to the victory on the streets of Baku, Verstappen retired from the grand prix with an oil pressure problem.

Verstappen has already denied this while his father, Jos, insists all is well between the driver and the team.
“Don’t make your own stories,” Verstappen Snr told F1i.com. “We are happy at Red Bull.”
