Yuki Stat Liam Lawson

47 Points 6
0 Wins 0
0 Podiums 0
0 Poles 0
45 Total GPs 11
1.04 Points / GP 0.

Even if you think long term Lawson is better… he’s not there yet. At least give Yuki a shots and give Lawson time to develop

If Perez is out and Liam is in, I assume that puts Isack Hadjar in the Racing Bull. Those should be the last dominos to fall and driver line ups should be set.

One year after no changes to the line ups we have 8 out of 10 teams making a change. McLaren and Aston Martin are the only two teams running it back next year with the same line ups. 5 rookies in the lineup next year not counting Liam Lawson.

You mean RBR doesn't want to promote drivers that could push their #1? That is their m.o.

Ever since multi 21 they have taken the road not to have two top drivers line up next to each other.

JEV, Danny Ric, Sainz, Gasly.....

I’ve always thought Helmut was higher on Yuki, it’s Christian who doesn’t like him.

You're right, Marko was always more open to the idea of Yuki in the Red Bull seat, although the way he talked about drivers could shift drastically from race to race. Horner never showed any interest. I meant that more recently, Marko started emphasizing Yuki's flaws as reasons he might not get promoted, while talking up Liam a bit. The impression I got was that he knew which way it was going to go and was pressured to toe the corporate line.

Red Bull re-signed Yuki for 2025 in June because other teams started talking to Yuki. Yuki of course stuck with RB because he felt that he earned a promotion. Well, RB could have done Yuki a solid and been truthful with him that he's never getting promoted, so he could have made a better decision. Now he's stuck in a dead-end job on a team that does not appear to be on the rise. I would have rather seen Yuki in the Haas instead of Ocon. Even Alpine, paired up with his buddy Gasly.

All this RB frickery makes you wonder whether they'd have any of their hardwar over the last 4 seasons if Max wasn't the wheelman?


They probably only win 2023. (Meaning WDC)

That car was so dominant the Windowlicker would have likely won in it.

Makes sense. Austro-German/Japanese/Italian partnerships and all the fun that coems with that. I could see how a Brit like Horner might not like that.

blueboy still believes the car wasn’t that great and Perez is actually a good driver.

So an agreement has been reached between Red Bull and Sergio Perez to part ways with immediate effect.

What hasn’t been agreed is who is announcing it first. So neither side is announcing it yet #F1

It's highly likely that it will be Liam Lawson who gets the Red Bull drive in 2025 #F1

Nice gesture from Ferrari to let Carlos Sr and Jr drive together.

The wording that they reached an agreement to separate makes me think Checo got paid.
