This weekend, Max Verstappen will race without his regular engineer Gianpiero Lambiase at the Austrian Grand Prix due to personal reasons. Instead, Simon Rennie will take over as Verstappen’s race engineer. Rennie has a wealth of experience in Formula 1, having worked with drivers like Fernando Alonso, Kimi Raikkonen, Mark Webber, and Daniel Ricciardo. Red Bull expects Lambiase to return for the British Grand Prix, as they conclude this double-header with upgrades before shifting focus to 2026 and the new regulations. Verstappen remains hopeful but realistic about his title chances, acknowledging the importance of the upcoming races in determining his championship aspirations.
