We tackle Red Bull’s self-inflicted driver conundrum in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.
With Sergio Perez’s seat in question for the second half of the season, just over a month after his new deal was announced, we evaluate his hopes of hanging on and the potential replacements.
Special guest Nelson Valkenburg, Viaplay F1 commentator in the Netherlands, joins Mark Hughes and Edd Straw to unravel this bizarre situation.
Liam Lawson’s chances of a mid-season return and Daniel Ricciardo’s chances of a Red Bull Racing comeback are evaluated, along with the question of why Yuki Tsunoda is not considered an option.
And the long-term problems of the hit-and-miss Red Bull driver programme are also addressed.
Finally, we discuss Max Verstappen’s position in the team and the persistent rumours about a possible move to Mercedes.
