What I do know is the redbull is a great car and much closer to the competition, with Perez at the wheel..

Both Max and the 2024 RB20 are quite impressive. I used to think it was mostly the car but have been long since schooled otherwise. Verstappen is indeed exceptional.

Ya he’s just in another league.. I’m not sure what will happen too the RB20 after 2025 or Max.. in equal cars across the board there’s no one that’s on his level..

Hot rumors.

Adrian Newey leaving Red Bull

Nico Hulkenberg signed a 3 year contract with Sauber/Audi

Logan Sargeant to be replaced after the Miami race

Very early silly season 😁

Wow. That is some hot scuttlebutt! Could be the start of more moves/more changes - the domino effect begins?

I bet the reason Alonso stayed at AM is because Stroll has bagged Newey… that’s my guess. I’ve also heard from a friend in the euro F1 circle Mick might be the other Audi driver but are considering Vettel

Another rumor to add to the mix , Audi may go after Mick Schumacher to have an all German lineup . With Hulks experience that could be a good pairing .

I think the hot rookie Antonelli will backfill Sargeant at Williams and hot rookie Bearman backfill Hulk at Haas . A longshot............ Bottas replaces K Mag at Haas .
