Red Bull has pulled the trigger after just two rounds in 2025, swapping Liam Lawson for Yuki Tsunoda. But beyond the on-track implications, what message does it send to young drivers and the Red Bull junior program?

    Absolutely agree. To copy from my own comment the other day, I guess Red Bull have struck gold twice with Vettel and Verstappen and so they’re willing to burn through young drivers as fast as possible to find the next prodigy.

      I agree with that. It’s how you win 4 WDC on the trot twice now, and then kinda just suffer in between, I guess.

      I feel like young drivers have to see this and want to steer clear if they have other options? Idk seems insanely risky to me
