Red Bull’s decision to drop Alex Albon from its Formula 1 racing line-up for 2021 in favour of Sergio Perez is scrutinised in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.
Scott Mitchell joins Edd Straw to discuss whether the choice was the right one, and how Perez will fare against one of the toughest team-mates in F1 in Max Verstappen.
Albon’s hopes of getting back into a race seat through his role as Red Bull’s test and reserve driver are also evaluated, as is what he can learn from Pierre Gasly’s example.
But Perez wasn’t the only big story of the day, so there’s also a look at the news about INEOS buying into the Mercedes team and what it means for the future of F1’s dominant force.
The Race F1 Podcast is released at least once a week and available free to subscribe to from all good podcast suppliers, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
