"Rebels know exactly what happened in the country" - Red Bull boss claimed Houthi rebels to know the F1 driver was in Jeddah

The Red Bull boss believes it is no coincidence that the attacks happened while the F1 drivers were in Saudi Arabia.

Red Bull boss Helmut Marko had indicated that the race in Jeddah should continue if F1 can ensure safety.

Following the news, the organizers held a meeting to decide whether or not to continue the race. It was decided that after a long discussion the race would go ahead. The decision received much criticism from the F1 community.

Fans are accusing the organizers of considering economic reasons more important than security reasons. However, Mercedes boss Toto Wolff revealed that teams are allowed to withdraw from the race if they wish.

In addition, after lengthy discussions among the drivers, the Grand Prix Drivers' Association issued a press release.

"Yesterday was a tough day for Formula 1 and a stressful day for us Formula 1 drivers. It's probably hard to understand that you've never driven an F1 car on this fast and challenging Jeddah track."

“But seeing the smoke from the incident. It was difficult to remain a fully focused race driver and erase natural human concerns. As a result, we went into lengthy discussions amongst ourselves, with our team principals, and with the most senior people running our game. ,

Red Bull boss thinks attack was deliberately targeted at Aramco

After yesterday's missile attack, Marko said that as long as security could be guaranteed, the race should continue. Marko also said, "It is clear that this is an attack."

"The rebels know what is going on in the country this weekend and of course, they want to use that attention to highlight their struggle."

The Austrian thinks the attacks were deliberately placed at the Aramco oil facility. Aramco is the title sponsor of F1.

Marko thinks it is no coincidence that the attack took place less than twenty kilometers from the Jeddah Corniche circuit during the first free practice.
