Red Bull was unable to clinch both F1 championships last year as McLaren bested its rivals to the top spot in the constructors’ standings.
Lando Norris believes Red Bull would have won both F1 title fights last year if they had a second driver on Max Verstappen’s level. Despite Verstappen winning the drivers’ title, Red Bull slipped to third in the constructors’ standings due to Sergio Perez’s poor performance towards the end of the season. McLaren ultimately secured the teams’ title, with Norris acknowledging Red Bull’s driver line-up instability contributed to their loss. Red Bull made the decision to replace Perez with Liam Lawson for the upcoming season, but Norris remains unbothered by their choices, stating it’s not his concern. He emphasized the exceptional talent of Max Verstappen and the impact it has had on Red Bull’s team dynamics.
