Let's hope sainz senior and Jos verstappen can sort their shit out, Jos always finds problems with people, and sainz would be a good teammate to max he wouldn't be challenging like what rosberg did but he would be P2 in standings if they have a good car
Alonso needs to go back to Indycar and try to get the triple crown. He’s keeping Yuki out of a job at Aston Martin. Ricciardo & Max. They win the championship. Ricciardo after 2025? Maybe not. But RBR have others in the system. Oh, and by the way, Yuki is only doing what he’s doing because of Ricciardo.
@richardwood9177 mate, just because he's old doesn't mean he shouldn't be in Formula One. He's not the one "taking away a seat," that would be Lance Stroll. As the last season's results show, Alonso is still a fast and capable driver deserving of a seat in Formula One, while Lance Stroll is kept in the sport against the wishes of sponsors due to the wishes of his father, the main investor within Aston Martin. In the case of the Triple Crown, I don't feel he desires to go for it anymore, dissuaded after another McLaren-Honda failure. In the case of Riccardo, I doubt he will return to Red Bull, due to his failure to be a reliable and consistent driver who can be trusted to deliver. It is solely his popularity and sponsors keeping him in the sport. I feel that another driver can possibly replace Checo and do better, and I'm sure Red Bull feel the same.
@@SaturnL200 I respect people’s opinions so we can agree to disagree. Not saying Alonso is old. Just older. I think most people would see the Lance situation the way you do. My point about Yuki is this. Honda will want its driver. With Lance wrapped in cotton wool, Fernando could be on the block. And I think he still wants the triple crown. And Ricciardo. He’s a better bet than Perez. Don’t forget that when he did his test at Silverstone last year he clocked a time good enough for pole. He’s still quick but admittedly he’s made some bad career choices. Horner still loves him and that’s all that matters.
My ranking based on these candidates in terms of how likely it is to happen 1. Ricciardo 2. Perez stays 3. Lawson 4. Sainz 5. Tsunoda 6. Norris I do not agree with my list, but based on past statements from Horner and other Red Bull employees, I think it is accurate
Yeah probably about that. Man tsunoda should be higher but who knows, maybe yuki finally realizes how mistreated he is and maybe goes back to Honda with Aston Martin
Yuki is going to get the Promotion, Liam is too risky as you also said and every young driver struggled so much in the RB in the last 5 years and dany is just too old and slow.
@claudiafernandes1150 I think Yuki is better off as either a VCARB lead driver or a lead driver for a non-Red Bull team like Aston Martin or Haas. He's headstrong, aggressive, and a bit of a risk taker. You don't put a guy like him as a #2 driver, lest you end up with a Hamilton-Rosberg or a Gasly-Ocon situation. Putting him and Max together in Red Bull would get them points...but could also end up ugly if Horner doesn't instill order, especially since both Max and Yuki are very aggressive and hot-tempered. Why do you think both of them spout a lot of F-Bombs in the radio? I think the best teammate for Yuki is someone chill or fun. VCARB did it right by pairing him with the chill Gasly, and later on the jolly Danny Ric.
@@Pokemonmaster150bDanny would be more likely as #2, since he does have experience with Max and at Red Bull. People may worry about team fights but surely they have grown up right?
Perez is stuck in a dilemma coz the car is being developed around max making it similar to brawn situation back 2009 where Barrichello was losing as the car was modified for Button now coming Yuki in Red Bull with max is out of the question Yuki is still not mature enough to handle the pressure being one sided dominated by max and competition between teammates is one of the spirit of F1 someone older like Riccardo can fill the space temporarily
That's not how car development happens. Cars are not developed according to a driver. That's impossible and a good recipe for making a slow car. The setup of the car can be made to a driver'd preference. This may be were Redbull shows preference to Max by doing WAY more simulations getting setups perfected for Max's driving style.
bro i desperately want yuki on that redbull. I fear that if Yuki does not get that top seat, he will leave RB all together now that Honda is moving to Aston Martin in 2026. RB has little time to show some love to Yuki.
Yuki's the realistic option. He's on the upward trajectory with his mental, being consistent, does well extracting the performance from the car and qualifies well.
The biggest problem with putting anybody except ricciardo in that seat is the threat they would pose to max -- NOT TO SAY THEY WOULD WIN! Yuki would likely want to compete for race wins (as he should), but RB wouldn't want to threaten max from within the team. Same goes for Lawson and Sainz - or any other driver for that matter; if he starts performing great, what're they gonna do in 2 years, just boot him to some other team/junior team so max is safe? Danny gives the team enough points for the constructors while also not making enough points to scare max, and while nobody thinks about it, Max is the only driver redbull wants winning.
I agree, but then there’s the issue of max leaving, they would at least want their next big winner already well settled at Red Bull like how max was in 2016 and 2017 before being really established in 2018.
They definitely promoted gasly too soon. But Yuki is already here since 2021 and he has shown massive improvement. He is fast, and consistent, what else do Red Bull want? Also I think they need to liberate one seat at RB, as they should at the very least promote Lawson or Hadjar into F1
Carlos really is the best choice for us because of competition . But as i said red bull doesnt want a driver to challenge max . So i think danny would be best.
RedBull is also bleeding off the Honda connection so Yuki is unlikely. If Ric goes and fails, he’s done for and I don’t want to see that. It’s Lawson or Ricc
Yuki is a paid driver. Honda pays $10 million per season to keep him there. After RB and Honda part ways Yuki will need to work harder to stay in F1. It’s a stroll situation
I mean most drivers need a giant financial backing from some company or person to make it to f1, realistically most drivers on the grid are paid drivers but what separates them from a person like stroll is that most have the talent to back it up. Yuki has the talent to prove his worth and I’m sure he will have a successful career
Don't want Yuki next to Max, VCARB just need a faster car. He can be at AM in 2026. He's still young and has yet to peak. But thank you for supporting Yuki! I think he deserves to at least try that seat.
Yeah, i actually really like yuki since in the 2020 season i watched a lot of f2 and yuki was always amazing to watch. I really want him to do well with a top team so let’s see what happens
Give yuki a seat. Fucking sack him if he sucks, but give the guy a chance, he deserves it. What purpose is a junior program/sister-junior team when you’re not even giving talents a try
I never was a fan of Checo, and didn’t see him „deserving“ that seat in the first place. Yeah, he had a couple great performances, but even Ocon and Stroll have that… The only worse option, however would be Ricciardo. Both need to go latest by the end of the season. No need to keep dead weight around if there’s so much talent at their fingertips. Give the young guys a shot and promote Iwasa or Hadjar to VCARB. Or just wait until Sainz drops his expectations and put him in RB while Yuki and Liam stay at VCARB…
Yeah, but it’s not about how could potentially compete with Max, but who can collect as many remaining points and at times help with strategic calls. And, tbh, none of the mentioned drivers are able to compete with Max in a RB
Good video once again, but i feel like your "intermissions", like the one at 1:01 in this video, is a bit too long. You can lose a lot of viewers with 15 seconds without any content. 5 seconds max i think. Keep up the good work
Ok we have a few scenarios tbh 1. Perez stays and gets booted out in 2025 2. Daniel Riccardo replaces perez this year (likely to happen because daniel is Horner's darling ) 3. Yuki replaces Perez for just half a season for red bull to evaluate for a short term basis(unlikely ) 4. Liam lawson to red bull like what oscar piastri did to join mclaren (thats crazy if that happen) But the catalyst for this will be the liam lawson Silverstone test, if by September we dont get news of lawson to vcarb or rb that mean he didn't impress but i think liam will impress
Hartley back for a 2nd shot :-) Tend to agree that Ric is the safe choice. Also continuing rumours that Yuki will move to Aston Martin with Honda in 2026, ao thats another count against Yuki getting the top seat. But RBR also need to keep an eye on everyone, in case the Jos - Horner issue blow up further and Max walks.
Liam is probably good enough to be in Red Bull, but it would probably be better for him to find his feet a bit more in less prominent car. I think they should put either Daniel or Yuki in for Perez for the rest of the year and see how Liam goes against the other in RB before making a decision on which of the three runs the Red Bull seat next year.
If Red Bull were smart imo, they would put ric and let the two youngsters gun it out but they should’ve done the same in 2019 with kyvat while albon and Gasly fight so who knows what they do
I think the best thing to do is let Perez go at break, put Liam in for rest of season. Hire Sainz for Perez's seat starting next season, let Riccardo (definitely not a Perez upgrade ) go at end of season and sign Liam as Yuki's partner starting next year. I would never have resigned Perez.
I would say, put Ricciardo in the Red Bull, and Liam lawson in the Vcarb. If Ricciardo doesn’t perform the rest of the year, Liam can get his position. But I do believe Ricciardo is the best bet for Red bull to still clinch this Constructers Championship.
Honestly I agree with Daniel moving to RedBull as it would allow Lawson to go to VCARB. It could just be a short term deal with Riccardo just to see how Liam progresses and if he improves he might move up to RedBull as soon as 2026 or 2027 (just speculation)
okay honestly great vid. But i do not agree with Yuki being a good option. He is too fiery and Redbull dont need that. Yuki will prob never get the rebull seat either. Yuki is alot like perez good driver but does he have the world champion levels of driving ? no. The best option is to put Ric in the redbull 1 or 2 years to bring stability and secure them the championship. Give lawson the vcarb seat, let him cook so they dont pull another gasly, once ric retires, give lawson the seat, by then max has probably also gone to merc so.
Yeah that’s a good option too, yuki is up and down for me, one weekend he looks calm and collected, then another he looks so angry and that is probably going to cost him a chance at Red Bull. It’s unfortunate but Liam will cook
I think Yuki is not ready to deal with a team like Red Bull, which is completely set up around Verstappen, builds car to suit MV's driving style and which does not provide a lot of support for its Number 2 drivers. He is however only a year or two away from developing what is needed and it would be a shame to have invested so much in him just to rush it unnecessarily. Unfortunately DR3 no longer has the consistency to be at Red Bull. They don't need him to turn up and put in an amazing, potentially race winning performance every 3 or 4 races, they need someone who can consistently qualify close to MV and bring the car home with a podium position and be there or there abouts in case MV crashes or breaks down. If we were in the era of unlimited testing I would strongly favour DR3 as his experience and car control would undoubtedly be beneficial for the 26 new engine supplier and would be perfect for continuity from Honda to RBPT/Ford. But with so little testing this is less of an advantage in his favour. Carlos Sainz does not get on with MV and his father is a far more influential and connected figure in motorsport, particularly with Ford, than Jos Verstappen and he could easily play politics behind the scene upsetting the team making MV unhappy. They already have a top 3 driver in MV they do not need to anything to upset him. Ideally they want an experienced driver who is a compliant team mate, so that if MV goes to Mercedes they have someone who can support and take some pressure off Yuki or Lawson in the hot seat. Putting Yuki in the seat is risking his long term Red Bull career for short term gain. Unless the decision is that Liam Lawson is the future then putting Yuki in the seat for 2 years and putting Lawson and Riccardo at VCARB (DR3 will provide a decent benchmark for Lawson to match his performance against) but Yuki will likely not have a future with the team, nor want to stay at Red Bull Ideally though Red Bull should have signed Hulkenberg for 25 and 26 and signed Yuki and Lawson for VCARB. DR3 would then have had time to negotiate with Alpine, Williams and HAAS for next year. In Hulkenberg's absence, I would sign Bottas for a 1+1 deal. He has proven he is a reliable number 2 driver, he is at the end of his career so he won't care about trying to match MV and a long term commercial relationship with Red Bull post his driving career will encourage him to toe the line. On his day DR3 is definitely faster than Bottas but his day is happening less consistently and Bottas will bring the Red Bull home in the points, will do some of the sponsorship work and will not rock the boat. If MV leaves you have a reliable driver for testing and development and his presence will not make top drivers question going to Red Bull to replace MV. Put Yuki and Lawson in VCARB and let them compete for two years and, as I suspect will happen, Yuki will refine his killer instinct. If not Lawson is hardly a slouch.
Those are really good points, either way, I am glad I am not a Red Bull employee right now, seems way too stressful in the future, if not now. But great points yet again
obviously Sainz is the best choice from a skills perspective, but from a politics/team harmony perspective we know it’s just never gonna work. Yuki is obviously more deserving than both Lawson and DR but it’s baffling how badly Red Bull are ignoring his efforts. It’s probably gonna end up being DR because Horner calls the shots, not Marko.
If they end up dropping Checo for the next season, IN MY OPINION, they will end up promoting Yuki and Liam will take his place at RB. Ricciardo will probably stay with RB one year more or will go to another team
I must be the only person reading the tea leaves....... right now it is 5 into 4, my guess is Max is going and they dont want to be left short...... I tip Sainz and Riccardo in RB next year a popular pair and two of the most consistent on the grid. Danny may only be a seat warmer, until they can get the next new thing in. I would think Checo is toast, and Liam and Yuki are VCARB, knowing that Yuki may well end up at Aston Martin and then VCARD will be back to rookies. So is the way of the force, the big question is will RB stay competitive with in house motors and no Newey...... No point in paying big $$$ for drivers if you are not competitive. Dani is popular in AMerica and TV so I see him staying around I think will be quick back in a RB
If Max leaves at end of '24 Sainz and Ricciardo would be a smart choice to handle the transition to 26 regulations and would be commercially popular. Plus Carlos' connections with Ford through his father would be beneficial for breaking through Ford corporate politics.
guarantee if Sainz was offered the Red Bull seat he would make his decision very quickly cause it’s a much better option/car than any of his other prospects. I think Sainz is waiting to see what Mercedes and now Red Bull end up doing and that’s why he keeps postponing his decision. it’s also worth noting that usually by now driver seats wouldn’t be confirmed anyways, Lewis announcing his Ferrari seat in February kicked things off a lot earlier than normal and so everyone has been expecting answers sooner. usually a lot of decision making and announcements come after the summer break so, imo, everyone can chill a while longer cause Sainz is trying to make a huge career decision with potentially only 💩 options if nothing happens with Red Bull or Mercedes.
Can't see it being Carlos, for as much as he seems like a likeable guy putitng him in a car next to Max would be like a repeat of Hamilton and Rosberg and not the good part of that Mercedes pairing.
Danny Ric is going to go to Redbull if Checo gets dropped during the year. He likes a pointy car and if he does shitty they can drop him by season end.
What are the chances that checo gets dropped though? I say it’s a 50/50 but if Hungary and Belgium are lower than P8 in 1 of the 2 places, then I think it goes to like a 80 percent chance he gets dropped
Liam Lawson is the best, most suitable, eager and ready candidate. He impressed at his debut race in tricky conditions on a difficult track (Zandvoort) and the moment he kicked double world champion Max out of Q3 in Singapore was the moment a famous one-eyed 80 plus year old got a silent ejaculation for sure. This comparison with past Red Bull drivers Albon and Gasly is unjustified. Different personalities, Lawson is championship material.
@@F-Duck1 I agree, especially with the last part. Since Mateschitz's death there seems to be a clear change in company direction at Red Bull, with more focus on commercial factors than pure driving skills alone. Red Bull as a brand really is of Extreme Young Active & adventurous And Ricciardo and Pérez do not fit this profile (anymore), Lawson clearly does and seems more mature and level headed than Tsunoda who clearly wasn't their candidate, else he'd been in that seat long ago. For 2025 I'd like to see Max & Lawson at the main team and Yuki and hopefully Hadjar at their junior team, but we shall see... thanks for your reactions, you do engage nicely with your audience!
These vids are so lukewarm, like everyone saying yuki is cooking, like cmon until silver stone he hadn’t scored a point for 4 races like you’ll are tryna make out with yuki he isn’t that good, he is BARELY out performing Daniel if you look at the stats and not the points.
They are closer definitely but the first 5 races can’t be ignored with Daniel. Plus yuki is much younger, so that’s why I feel he should get the seat but like I also said, Daniel will probably get it due to Horner preferring him which definitely isn’t a bad thing but it’s not the best option in my opinion. You have a good point tho with yukis recent performances
@@F-Duck1 yeah, also yuki is a lot more snappy and daniel knows what its like to drive a championship car. if they make the change mid season then it should be ricciardo but there is definitely a case for if it wqs a new season.
@@F-Duck1 Yea haha imagine the 2 greatest red bull drivers in 1 team! I heard Seb also talked with red bull but that didn't really work out. Helmut Marko later said that seb wouldn't probably like it driving with verstappen in a team😂
@@F-Duck1 …Even then he wasn’t that good. Daniel has never been this great phenomenal force to be reckoned with. True, he got some wins here to there, but he has never performed as a top driver. There was always someone to top him.
Liam has do a test with the current car and it was trash absolutely disgusting pace even worse than checo we don’t know the full picture, and even talking about Daniel is just dumb and delulu when just one good SPRINT race from Daniel it’s good enough to get Red Bull seat we just have short memories if we want someone consistent more than checo why bring Daniel when of 12 is only 1/2 of a race checo at the beginning do 3 full races, what a dump video
That’s why I said yuki was the best option. I only said Daniel gets the seat because Horner will get what he wants but make no mistake that seat should be yuki’s

Good video once again, but i feel like your "intermissions", like the one at 1:01 in this video, is a bit too long. You can lose a lot of viewers with 15 seconds without any content. 5 seconds max i think. Keep up the good work
Thanks for the advice, I’ll try 10 seconds next time then I’ll do 5 seconds and then compare the three, thanks for the advice again!
Ok we have a few scenarios tbh
1. Perez stays and gets booted out in 2025
2. Daniel Riccardo replaces perez this year (likely to happen because daniel is Horner's darling )
3. Yuki replaces Perez for just half a season for red bull to evaluate for a short term basis(unlikely )
4. Liam lawson to red bull like what oscar piastri did to join mclaren (thats crazy if that happen)
But the catalyst for this will be the liam lawson Silverstone test, if by September we dont get news of lawson to vcarb or rb that mean he didn't impress but i think liam will impress
True but who knows maybe that filming day isn’t a secret test but really just a filming day and nothing more (I doubt)
Hartley back for a 2nd shot :-)
Tend to agree that Ric is the safe choice.
Also continuing rumours that Yuki will move to Aston Martin with Honda in 2026, ao thats another count against Yuki getting the top seat.
But RBR also need to keep an eye on everyone, in case the Jos - Horner issue blow up further and Max walks.
True that, ric is the safe choice so maybe the tension lowers
Liam is probably good enough to be in Red Bull, but it would probably be better for him to find his feet a bit more in less prominent car. I think they should put either Daniel or Yuki in for Perez for the rest of the year and see how Liam goes against the other in RB before making a decision on which of the three runs the Red Bull seat next year.
If Red Bull were smart imo, they would put ric and let the two youngsters gun it out but they should’ve done the same in 2019 with kyvat while albon and Gasly fight so who knows what they do
I think the best thing to do is let Perez go at break, put Liam in for rest of season. Hire Sainz for Perez's seat starting next season, let Riccardo (definitely not a Perez upgrade ) go at end of season and sign Liam as Yuki's partner starting next year. I would never have resigned Perez.
Same, Checos team must have some massive blackmail to have even got that resigning
I would say, put Ricciardo in the Red Bull, and Liam lawson in the Vcarb.
If Ricciardo doesn’t perform the rest of the year, Liam can get his position.
But I do believe Ricciardo is the best bet for Red bull to still clinch this Constructers Championship.
Maybe, we’ll have to see what happens entering the summer break
A Rubber Duck could replace Checo right now and get P5 in that RB 20. Subbed by the way!
Thank you!
If u put any of leclerc,Sainz,piastri,Lewis,George,lando,Alonso they would be top 5 every race
READY FOR ALGORITHM SPAM?

Honestly I agree with Daniel moving to RedBull as it would allow Lawson to go to VCARB. It could just be a short term deal with Riccardo just to see how Liam progresses and if he improves he might move up to RedBull as soon as 2026 or 2027 (just speculation)
Yeah I agree, Liam would be a fantastic fit so let’s see if he does well if he ever goes to vcarb
okay honestly great vid. But i do not agree with Yuki being a good option. He is too fiery and Redbull dont need that. Yuki will prob never get the rebull seat either. Yuki is alot like perez good driver but does he have the world champion levels of driving ? no. The best option is to put Ric in the redbull 1 or 2 years to bring stability and secure them the championship. Give lawson the vcarb seat, let him cook so they dont pull another gasly, once ric retires, give lawson the seat, by then max has probably also gone to merc so.
Yeah that’s a good option too, yuki is up and down for me, one weekend he looks calm and collected, then another he looks so angry and that is probably going to cost him a chance at Red Bull. It’s unfortunate but Liam will cook
Me personally I think one of the RB drives will get the seat because junior program.
Also the background music goes hard.
Thanks! And yeah, Sainz would be cool but it is unlikely
Was way to nice to Daniel
Perhaps but it’s all about Horner…
RBR should get Sainz and get rid of Jos.
Would be the most perfect outcome. Any driver tbh just get rid of jos
I think Yuki is not ready to deal with a team like Red Bull, which is completely set up around Verstappen, builds car to suit MV's driving style and which does not provide a lot of support for its Number 2 drivers. He is however only a year or two away from developing what is needed and it would be a shame to have invested so much in him just to rush it unnecessarily.
Unfortunately DR3 no longer has the consistency to be at Red Bull. They don't need him to turn up and put in an amazing, potentially race winning performance every 3 or 4 races, they need someone who can consistently qualify close to MV and bring the car home with a podium position and be there or there abouts in case MV crashes or breaks down. If we were in the era of unlimited testing I would strongly favour DR3 as his experience and car control would undoubtedly be beneficial for the 26 new engine supplier and would be perfect for continuity from Honda to RBPT/Ford. But with so little testing this is less of an advantage in his favour.
Carlos Sainz does not get on with MV and his father is a far more influential and connected figure in motorsport, particularly with Ford, than Jos Verstappen and he could easily play politics behind the scene upsetting the team making MV unhappy. They already have a top 3 driver in MV they do not need to anything to upset him.
Ideally they want an experienced driver who is a compliant team mate, so that if MV goes to Mercedes they have someone who can support and take some pressure off Yuki or Lawson in the hot seat.
Putting Yuki in the seat is risking his long term Red Bull career for short term gain. Unless the decision is that Liam Lawson is the future then putting Yuki in the seat for 2 years and putting Lawson and Riccardo at VCARB (DR3 will provide a decent benchmark for Lawson to match his performance against) but Yuki will likely not have a future with the team, nor want to stay at Red Bull
Ideally though Red Bull should have signed Hulkenberg for 25 and 26 and signed Yuki and Lawson for VCARB. DR3 would then have had time to negotiate with Alpine, Williams and HAAS for next year. In Hulkenberg's absence, I would sign Bottas for a 1+1 deal. He has proven he is a reliable number 2 driver, he is at the end of his career so he won't care about trying to match MV and a long term commercial relationship with Red Bull post his driving career will encourage him to toe the line. On his day DR3 is definitely faster than Bottas but his day is happening less consistently and Bottas will bring the Red Bull home in the points, will do some of the sponsorship work and will not rock the boat. If MV leaves you have a reliable driver for testing and development and his presence will not make top drivers question going to Red Bull to replace MV.
Put Yuki and Lawson in VCARB and let them compete for two years and, as I suspect will happen, Yuki will refine his killer instinct. If not Lawson is hardly a slouch.
Those are really good points, either way, I am glad I am not a Red Bull employee right now, seems way too stressful in the future, if not now. But great points yet again
obviously Sainz is the best choice from a skills perspective, but from a politics/team harmony perspective we know it’s just never gonna work.
Yuki is obviously more deserving than both Lawson and DR but it’s baffling how badly Red Bull are ignoring his efforts. It’s probably gonna end up being DR because Horner calls the shots, not Marko.
Yeah it’s so unfortunate that Red Bull is like that, why have so many employees and people if Horner can just void everything and get what he wants
If they end up dropping Checo for the next season, IN MY OPINION, they will end up promoting Yuki and Liam will take his place at RB. Ricciardo will probably stay with RB one year more or will go to another team
Yeah true, we could very well see that and it honestly wouldn’t be that bad
Yuki *should* get it and deserves it
I agree but we will have to see
I must be the only person reading the tea leaves....... right now it is 5 into 4, my guess is Max is going and they dont want to be left short...... I tip Sainz and Riccardo in RB next year a popular pair and two of the most consistent on the grid. Danny may only be a seat warmer, until they can get the next new thing in. I would think Checo is toast, and Liam and Yuki are VCARB, knowing that Yuki may well end up at Aston Martin and then VCARD will be back to rookies. So is the way of the force, the big question is will RB stay competitive with in house motors and no Newey...... No point in paying big $$$ for drivers if you are not competitive. Dani is popular in AMerica and TV so I see him staying around I think will be quick back in a RB
If Max leaves at end of '24 Sainz and Ricciardo would be a smart choice to handle the transition to 26 regulations and would be commercially popular. Plus Carlos' connections with Ford through his father would be beneficial for breaking through Ford corporate politics.
That could be a possibility, Sainz and Ricciardo wouldn’t be a bad pairing at all. Still shame for yuki
guarantee if Sainz was offered the Red Bull seat he would make his decision very quickly cause it’s a much better option/car than any of his other prospects. I think Sainz is waiting to see what Mercedes and now Red Bull end up doing and that’s why he keeps postponing his decision. it’s also worth noting that usually by now driver seats wouldn’t be confirmed anyways, Lewis announcing his Ferrari seat in February kicked things off a lot earlier than normal and so everyone has been expecting answers sooner. usually a lot of decision making and announcements come after the summer break so, imo, everyone can chill a while longer cause Sainz is trying to make a huge career decision with potentially only 💩 options if nothing happens with Red Bull or Mercedes.
Yeah true, just unfortunate Sainz is even in this situation in general
The best place for Sainz is Mercedes, he likes a understeery setup like Hambone.
Hambone ? 😭, but yeah Sainz to merc wouldn’t be too bad other than Antonelli maybe being preferred but let us see
Imagine the yuki/piastri fights if he gets the rb seat
Yuki and Piastri would be an awesome pairing
nah fernando alonso is gonna take the red bull seat and dominate to win 4 more world titles RAHHHH
We will be there, 63 year old Alonso winning his 18th title, I’ve seen the script
Checo got an ultimatum that he has to be within 100 points of max at the summer break
This video was made before that announcement but it only further enhances my point of he will probably be sacked this year
make up 37 points to verstappen in 2 gps? impossible I would be surprised if he even scores 20 points lol, he is a goner
Why do F1 TH-camrs love Persona 5 music? Not that I'm complaining.
p5 music is good that’s why. Plus it sets a nice mood for certain segments.

Thank you!
i thought this had a lot more views than it does, good job!
Thanks!
Any of these are an improvement
Trueee
lawson. thats all i gotta say
edit: although its more likely he will get the vcarb seat before moving on to redbull
Maybeeee, we will have to see
Can't see it being Carlos, for as much as he seems like a likeable guy putitng him in a car next to Max would be like a repeat of Hamilton and Rosberg and not the good part of that Mercedes pairing.
Yeah true, what Red Bull need is stability so probably not
Danny Ric is going to go to Redbull if Checo gets dropped during the year. He likes a pointy car and if he does shitty they can drop him by season end.
True that, but I imagine it’d be a pr disaster so let us see
Love your content. Keep up the great work!
Thank you!
What are the chances that checo gets dropped though? I say it’s a 50/50 but if Hungary and Belgium are lower than P8 in 1 of the 2 places, then I think it goes to like a 80 percent chance he gets dropped
Oh yeah, and also considering what Marko said earlier, he is one very thin ice that is about to break
I really hope it’s not Ricciardo.
It’s most likely going to be him man… unfortunate for yuki and Liam
Great Video👍
Thanks!
Liam Lawson is the best, most suitable, eager and ready candidate.
He impressed at his debut race in tricky conditions on a difficult track (Zandvoort) and the moment he kicked double world champion Max out of Q3 in Singapore was the moment a famous one-eyed 80 plus year old got a silent ejaculation for sure.
This comparison with past Red Bull drivers Albon and Gasly is unjustified. Different personalities, Lawson is championship material.
I think the same too, I just really want to see Liam in f1 one day, not to mention he seems like a cool guy as well
@@F-Duck1 I agree, especially with the last part.
Since Mateschitz's death there seems to be a clear change in company direction at Red Bull, with more focus on commercial factors than pure driving skills alone.
Red Bull as a brand really is of
Extreme
Young
Active & adventurous
And Ricciardo and Pérez do not fit this profile (anymore), Lawson clearly does and seems more mature and level headed than Tsunoda who clearly wasn't their candidate, else he'd been in that seat long ago.
For 2025 I'd like to see Max & Lawson at the main team and Yuki and hopefully Hadjar at their junior team, but we shall see... thanks for your reactions, you do engage nicely with your audience!
Nothing I love more than talking f1 or motortsports in general. Thanks for commenting :)
These vids are so lukewarm, like everyone saying yuki is cooking, like cmon until silver stone he hadn’t scored a point for 4 races like you’ll are tryna make out with yuki he isn’t that good, he is BARELY out performing Daniel if you look at the stats and not the points.
They are closer definitely but the first 5 races can’t be ignored with Daniel. Plus yuki is much younger, so that’s why I feel he should get the seat but like I also said, Daniel will probably get it due to Horner preferring him which definitely isn’t a bad thing but it’s not the best option in my opinion. You have a good point tho with yukis recent performances
@@F-Duck1 yeah, also yuki is a lot more snappy and daniel knows what its like to drive a championship car. if they make the change mid season then it should be ricciardo but there is definitely a case for if it wqs a new season.
get yuki in there!
Yes, we shall see what happens
Yuki is contracted to red bull , he won’t need to break a contract to swap seats
Really? I didn’t know that about Red Bull, I guess that’s why every team transfer between them is so seamless
@@F-Duck1 yeah all the same team
You got it right on the money with this one
Let us see!
Get Vettel for 2025 and after that let yuki drive.
Bringing seb back would be amazing but it’s very unlikely, but who knows
@@F-Duck1 Yea haha imagine the 2 greatest red bull drivers in 1 team! I heard Seb also talked with red bull but that didn't really work out. Helmut Marko later said that seb wouldn't probably like it driving with verstappen in a team😂
I’m keeping it real Daniel is great for the media but his performance isn’t great
Definitely not great
Choosing daniel would be dumb af, he consistently is a back marker and is extremely overrated.
True, we need pre 2021 Danny ric again, he was so good.
@@F-Duck1 …Even then he wasn’t that good. Daniel has never been this great phenomenal force to be reckoned with. True, he got some wins here to there, but he has never performed as a top driver. There was always someone to top him.
1:36 Iwasa*
Did I pronounce his name wrong, my bad I suck with pronunciations
Mazepin to RedBull confirmed
We will be there
Ural kali redbull racing
Liam has do a test with the current car and it was trash absolutely disgusting pace even worse than checo we don’t know the full picture, and even talking about Daniel is just dumb and delulu when just one good SPRINT race from Daniel it’s good enough to get Red Bull seat we just have short memories if we want someone consistent more than checo why bring Daniel when of 12 is only 1/2 of a race checo at the beginning do 3 full races, what a dump video
That’s why I said yuki was the best option. I only said Daniel gets the seat because Horner will get what he wants but make no mistake that seat should be yuki’s
Ricciardo !
Let us see!
Quak quak🥌
Quak quak
I’d want to see Albon to go to redbull
Me too but a certain someone would not give up their pride. So I doubt that ever happens
