“When you’re the person that it’s about, you maybe don’t agree with it so much because it can make you look like you said something in a time and place which is definitely not correct,” he added.

Earlier, Red Bull’s Max Verstappen opted out of the show for similar reasons. The absence of Verstappen in the current series means Red Bull boss Christian Horner features heavily. The show has also featured episodes for teams like Haas and Williams. Season 4 focuses primarily on the battle between Red Bull and Mercedes, ending in the season finale at Abu Dhabi.
