Red Bull star given impossible Max Verstappen choice
Damon Hill suggests that Isack Hadjar faces a tough decision on how to approach the second Red Bull seat for the 2026 season.
Hadjar, who is set to partner with Max Verstappen, will need to demonstrate his worth amidst the new F1 regulations.
Yuki Tsunoda’s lackluster performance in the previous season underscores the challenge Hadjar faces in not only scoring points but also supporting Verstappen as the team’s lead driver.
Hill and Johnny Herbert have highlighted the delicate balance Hadjar must strike in proving himself while also backing Verstappen as the number one driver.
The key question remains whether Hadjar’s acceptance of a supporting role could hinder his own potential for a championship title in the future.
