Helmut Marko declared "I can stop at any time" as he appeared to voice his discontent at the new Red Bull structure formed after the death of Dietrich Mateschitz.
The co-founder of the energy drinks giant died last October at the age of 78, after a long fight with pancreatic cancer. As well as being a marketing phenomenon, Mateschitz held huge passion for motorsport and his Red Bull brand has, for decades, been involved in the racing world.
The jewel in the crown remains the Red Bull Formula 1 team which is, again, threatening to launch an era of dominance in the sport. Four titles in a row between 2010 and 2013 remains their most successful period, though Max Verstappen has enjoyed back-to-back championship successes and got off to the perfect start in his bid for a third this month.
