Red Bull Racing is currently facing some challenges with its driver lineup, prompting Christian Horner to admit that the team needs to address the significant performance gap between Max Verstappen and his teammate, Sergio Perez. This gap could impact Red Bull’s ability to maintain dominance in future world titles. Rumors of Red Bull considering replacements for Perez have been circulating, with Daniel Ricciardo, who has been testing for the team, emerging as a possible candidate for 2025. While Horner has expressed his support for Perez, the team’s expectations remain high, making the situation uncertain for the Mexican driver.
Meanwhile, Max Verstappen, fresh off another dominant season, recently took a break from the Formula 1 world to attend a wedding in Portugal. He was joined by his partner, Kelly Piquet, as they celebrated the marriage of Formula E driver Nelson Piquet Jr., Kelly’s brother. This event provided a momentary respite for Verstappen before the upcoming United States Grand Prix, where Red Bull is expected to unveil new car liveries.
