Yuki Tsunoda has asserted that it would be a “weird” situation should Red Bull choose to promote reserve driver Liam Lawson to the parent Formula 1 team over him.
Red Bull appeared to have finalised its driver line-up heading into the coming seasons as it announced last month that Sergio Perez has penned a multi-term renewal.
I explained why.
And hiring/keeping Perez is proof they don’t want the highest performing available option for both seats. It probably isn’t a controversial opinion that Perez isn’t one of the best on the grid.
Yeah. Extending Perez’s contract while sainz was available is a clear sign that they wanted what was better for the team. Just turned out that perez has become so slow that he is not able to fulfil his role of supporting Verstappen.
