Ross Brawn believes the solution to Formula 1’s domination problem is to have “someone more competitive” in the second Red
The RB19 is currently the strongest car in the 2023 F1 season, with only one non-Red Bull driver, Carlos Sainz from Ferrari, managing to secure a victory in Singapore. However, within the Red Bull team, there has been a clear dominance by Max Verstappen over Sergio Perez, who joined the team in 2021. Verstappen has 17 GP wins compared to Perez’s two and has already clinched the Drivers’ title in Qatar with five races remaining. Ross Brawn believes that McLaren, with drivers like Lando Norris and occasionally Oscar Piastri, could pose a challenge to Red Bull next season. Brawn recalls his time at Mercedes when the rivalry between Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg added excitement even during dominant seasons. Red Bull plans to retain the Verstappen-Perez driver partnership for the following season, but there are rumors of Daniel Ricciardo potentially replacing Perez. Ricciardo, currently driving for AlphaTauri, has a full season to prove himself for a possible move to Red Bull.
