F1电视分析员亚历克斯·布伦德尔盛赞马克斯·维斯塔潘对红牛的长期承诺，称这是对洛朗·梅基斯领导能力的有力背书。
在经历了数月关于他在一级方程式（Formula 1）未来的猜测之后，这位四届冠军签下了一份新合同，从而终结了围场里的种种传闻，新合同将让他留在这家位于米尔顿凯恩斯的车队直至2030年底。
红牛车队在过去艰难的两年里经历了接连不断的人事变动，其中包括2025年7月梅基斯接替长期任职的克里斯蒂安·霍纳，升任车队领队。
在赞德沃特接受F1电视台《周末热身》（Weekend Warm-Up）节目的采访时，布伦德尔表示，维斯塔潘的长期合同传递出了一个强烈的信号。
他说：“对于梅基斯领导下的红牛来说，这可以说是维斯塔潘给予的一个相当重要的认可，不是吗？考虑到红牛过去发生的一切，过去几年里出现了一定程度的人才流失，人员不断流失等等，对洛朗·梅基斯和车队来说，情况不可能再好了。”
维斯塔潘本人在周四的新闻发布会上也表达了同样的看法，他热情地谈到了工作环境以及领导层的透明度。
"是啊，其实压力并不算太大，"这位荷兰车手对媒体说道。"这是一个正确的决定。我在车队里感觉非常好。我们坚信未来几年能够重返巅峰。
"对我来说，这里就像一个大家庭，所以我很高兴能成为其中的一员。在过去几个月里，大家一直在谈论车队未来几年的发展、计划和想法。这些信息始终以非常开放的方式传达给我，这正是我所喜欢的。
"我喜欢他们想要实现的目标，这也是我为什么希望在将来继续成为其中一员的原因。"

Max Verstappen's Red Bull commitment hailed as "important vindication" of Laurent Mekies
Alex Brundle believes Max Verstappen’s new long-term Red Bull deal is a major vote of confidence in Laurent Mekies

F1 TV analyst Alex Brundle has hailed Max Verstappen's long-term commitment to Red Bull as a strong endorsement of Laurent Mekies' leadership.
Following months of speculation regarding his future in Formula 1, the four-time champion put an end to the paddock rumours by signing a new contract that keeps him at the Milton Keynes outfit until the end of 2030.
Red Bull has endured a challenging couple of years with a string of personnel changes, including Mekies stepping up to take the team principal position from the long-standing Christian Horner in July 2025.
Speaking on F1 TV's Weekend Warm-Up broadcast at Zandvoort, Brundle argued that Verstappen's long-term contract sends a strong message.
"It's a pretty important vindication, isn't it, of Red Bull under Mekies from Max Verstappen," he said. "With everything that's been going on at Red Bull, a bit of a brain drain over the last couple of years, losing personnel and all of the rest, it couldn't have gone much better for Laurent Mekies and the team."
Verstappen himself echoed those sentiments during Thursday's press conference, speaking warmly about the working environment and the transparency of the leadership.
"Yeah, I mean it wasn't really too stressful," the Dutchman told the media. "It was the right call. I feel really good within the team. We have a lot of belief that we can get back to the top in the coming years.
"For me, this feels like one big family, so I'm just very happy to be a part of that. And over the last few months, you talk about the team moving forward in the coming years, plans, ideas. So it's always been communicated to me in a very open way, and that's what I like.
"I like what they're trying to achieve, and that's why I also want to be part of it in the future."
