MODERATORS
Can't be worse than Lawson, I guess, but they're setting him up to be really embarrassed in front of his home crowd.
Grab the Bull by the horns, Yuki!
I'm gutted for Lawson, it doesn't feel like he got a fair shot to acclimate. Red Bull is absolutely ruthless. Godspeed Tsunoda, hope it works out better for you.
I think red bull is about to discover they don't have a car, just a Max.
He was pulled up at 18 because Red Bull desperately wanted to replace Checo. Just because an 18 year old is doing well doesn't mean they're ready for F1, it means they're promising, and you need to let them cook a bit. He's young and he's got plenty of chances ahead of him.
Many drivers are signed for 2026/27 now, teams are locking down through the regulation changes, external circumstances are removing options. I hope he works out at vcarb because I liked the driving I saw when he subbed - but nothing is guaranteed.
Red Bull is going to be a disaster if/when Max ever leaves them.
My heart is not ready for Yuki struggling to control that beast and flailing around and spinning and/or finishing P20 in qualy.
But hey, at least he is finally free of the VCARB "strategy" team. So there is that.
What a shit show. Talk about a single point of failure (Max) within a team.
I feel like Yuki won't fare super well, but surely better than Lawson
I am hoping yuki does decent.
Me too but.. That car is a beast
trial by fire for Yuki
It feels unfair to Lawson, he got to drive 2 races on the tracks he never drove before, with not much of adaptation time to the car that even Max and others at RB admit is hard to drive. I hope that car will not break Yuki's career in the same way. Although he was probably on the way out from VCARB by the end of the season without Honda's backing anyway, so that might be the best chance for him.
