I'm inclined to agree. Yuki has matured a ton and you can see it in his driving. I'm worried it's still a little too early, but at a certain point it's sink or swim
Agreed. Seriously doubt it will be DR. Maybe they give Yuki a partial season try like Gasly or Albon. Whatever they do, I imagine if Horner and Marko are leaning opposite ways, Horner’s choice gets taken since DeVries isn’t panning out.
He's still in second place in the championship and brings a lot of sponsorship money. Max will be champion and red bull will win the constructors this year. Unless the other teams catch up, I'm not sure red bull would risk replacing him with an unknown quantity or with someone who could really challenge Max before 2024. He will probably be gone after that though (end of his current contract)
Yeah, I think they give him next season, and at the end of the contract they just won't renew and can promote Yuki (or Lawson if he's really as fast as they say)
There's no reason for them to break the contract early and it'd only hurt them
Was it confirmed to not be RIC? He wasn't too sharp last year, but if he finds himself some motivation he might not perform worse than Perez at this point.
There's a lot of hype around RIC, but I don't think they'd give him the seat.
If they're going to replace PER they'll probably look at the AT drivers first
