      Good that it is just a switch. Best of luck to both of them. Well, maybe more to Liam ...

      As the BBC article says, both Gasly & Albon have done really well since their Red Bull demotion.

      First interview with Max will be interesting, as he made it pretty clear he wasn't in favour of it. And Max has a lot of say.

        In the context of Lawson's F1 future, I think this is a good move for him. Floundering in the RB car did no favours for his reputation as a driver, if he can have a good season in the white car it will place him in the shop window. One day he may choose to leave RB and he needs to show he's an attractive option for other teams including the two new ones

          @canefan It will be interesting to see how LL goes vs Hadjar at RB, if he cannot match or better the speed of Hadjar then even more pressure will be mounted on his ability.

          That will be interesting because I've read quite a few reports that Hadjar is a future WC such is the admiration of his talent.

                  As mentioned above it doesn't sound like Max is happy about the demotion at all, even liking IG posts accusing Red Bull of bullying. A lot of trouble in paradise there. It's pretty unfortunate timing for Lawson really, if the Japanese Grand Prix was a few races away, he'd likely have been given more time until then. But if they were going to bring Yuki in then that is the race to do so, because money talks even if that's a short term view.

                  Adds a lot of interest to this race though, if Lawson can out perform Tsunoda the infighting will only increase. Gotta love the drama.

                      Verstappen to me looks to be just going through the motions, like he doesn't really care what happens. I wonder how much passion or motivation he has left after all his success and the shenanigans at RB. Almost looks like he is just collecting the paycheck and waiting for time to go so he can compete in his virtual racing.

                        Max has always said he will walk away young.

                        Suspect he will and then come back

                          All of a sudden there's a lot of people who care very much about rewarding performance. Muchos de ellos hablando en español... 🤣

                                        Whispers from the paddock....

                                        Decision to cancel LL was basically a fait du compli in China

                                        RB are making major changes to Tsunoda's car to make it more driveable. Something they never bothered to do with LLs car

                                        So basically our lad got shafted
