We won't know the behind-the-scenes talk but you have to question (from both parties) why you wouldn't or don't want to pair Max with Carlos. The only thing is if you know you have a junior driver you're just waiting to promote.
The Red Bull Team will lose the 2024 WCC with Checo (!)
Checo scored 15 points in the last 7 races ...
MAX won the 2023 WCC on his own (!)

It's time to replace Checo ASAP ..
IMHO. Nico Hulkenberg aka The Hulk is the right #2 Red Bull driver to replace Checo .

I'd like to see Yuki get a shot just because he is younger. Couldn't hurt anything for RB to find a nice stable #2 that could be around for more than a few years.

Or pick a driver who's style is most similar to Max.

I'm pretty sure , they'll give Yuki a chance to test him in the Silverstone benchmark time .

Lawson failed to run the RB benchmark time ,Lawson was too slow (!)

Nico Hulkenberg aka The Hulk is the right man to replace Checo

Of course, the forgotten German, maybe but Horner will delay hoping for a miracle from Serge while the loads of cash rolls in from Slim targeted sponsors...might just decide f* the constructors if it comes to the crunch with more wind tunnel time so long as MAX keeps standing on the others and crushes LEW & LAN

Those mini pipes standing up out of the Merc in front of the hump look like air pressure pipes like you see on the wings of larger aircraft.

One thing is for sure : The Benz hits back in QF and race pace (!)

IMHO .The rest of the season will look like this ..

McLaren vs Red Bull vs Mercedes
2 drivers vs 1 driver vs 2 drivers (!)

Ferrari must stop with their Italian clown show ... Too bad !

Red Bull has only MAX to fight in the front ...
Checo must EXIT ASAP (!)

F@ck the Mexican government (!)

We'll know after Spa, Hulk must have some sort of exit clause in his contract with Bearman then slotting in, trying to work out what will happen is like looking for a needle in a haystack right now.

Charlie vs LEW in '25 wow should be quite a knockout match every race, how are they going to get a competitive car together even with LEW's knowledge from January the 1st while looking for a chief aerodynamicist/tech chap, then the build with presentations a few weeks away, they don't just appear from a jobs to do list LOL

LEW knows what it is but that doesn't mean Italian clowns can duplicate it

Kinda like when they tried to copy RB and failed miserably

I need a new team

They should come up with something a bit better for Hungary, must have some more spare floor and s/pod combinations stashed away somewhere with increased wing for this twisty track with one decent straight.

^ Great to see Newey in that motor, Vettel didn't turn up there to drive it reading that he is on a family holiday far away somewhere.
Cheeky journo stated he wasn't using full wellie going up the hill and Ade handled the presumptuous clot very well like a true Englishman.
Today Horner is due to drive the RB8 which should be interesting.

MAX drives the RB16B at Goodwood : The HONDA PU sounds insane (!)

Indeed it was, the 90 degree V6 24V turbo with 740 hp, 15k rpm red line and Honda's secret induction to produce that unique chat chat on the overrun
