P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Red Bull is yet to fulfill its requirement to run a rookie driver in each car during the season – with Christian Horner confirming the team’s plans.
Christian Horner confirmed that Red Bull will be running Jake Dennis and Isack Hadjar, both rookies, in its mandatory rookie driver sessions in Abu Dhabi. This is in line with the new rule that requires every team to run a rookie driver in place of a regular race driver in each car. Other teams, such as Mercedes and Haas, have already had rookie drivers in their cars during the Mexico City Grand Prix. Red Bull has yet to run a rookie driver, and their only opportunity to do so is during the finale in Abu Dhabi. Horner plans to swap out both Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez for the rookie drivers, taking advantage of the first session in Abu Dhabi, which tends to have little value for car set-up. Jake Dennis and Isack Hadjar will be driving the two cars, with Hadjar having already driven during the opening practice in Mexico.
