In the midst of the title battle, the Red Bull team may face a tricky situation at the Mexico Grand Prix. While every point matters for Max Verstappen, his teammate Sergio Perez will be determined to win his home Grand Prix. But team orders could come into play during the race if Perez is leading and his teammate is second. Sebastian Vettel has spoken out on the matter and hopes that Red Bull will not issue team orders.<\/p>\n
\u00ab I’m not a fan of team orders, […] I think it’s bad and I would be in favor of never having them, \u00bb, Vettel explains to Autosport.com.<\/i><\/p>\n
