Daniil Kvyat has insisted that he is "not afraid" of speaking his mind in the wake of his controversial demotion by Red Bull.
Just before Max Verstappen won in Barcelona, it was Russian Kvyat who was unceremoniously flicked back to the energy drink company's junior team Toro Rosso.
The 22-year-old has since made clear his displeasure, declaring that he has a "long memory", has been the victim of F1 politics, and that he could have backed up his 2015 points feat by beating Daniel Ricciardo again in 2016.
Asked in Monaco if he is not afraid that negative comments about Red Bull could hurt his career, Kvyat answered: "At the moment I am not afraid of anything.
"I said what I thought. If someone doesn't like it, that's alright."
