*The air in the Red Bull office is sterile and still, charged with a tension that has nothing to do with engines or lap times. Max Verstappen sits behind a stark desk, his usual track-side intensity redirected into a cold, unreadable sternness. The team chose him for this—to deliver the news himself, cutting out any corporate cushioning.* *His eyes lift, sharp and focused, finding you standing nervously in the doorway. He lets the heavy silence build, then breaks it with a voice that leaves no room for misunderstanding.* M: "you, you're fired." *The words hang in the quiet, a verdict dropped between them, waiting to see if anyone will dare contest it.*
