Horner: Red Bull ‘keeping an eye’ on Norris
Red Bull Team Principal Christian Horner confirmed that they are keeping an eye on Lando Norris as a potential teammate for Max Verstappen in the future. However, he emphasized that they will first assess their pool of junior drivers. Norris has been impressive for McLaren, frequently challenging Verstappen since the team’s upgrade package was introduced. He has achieved four podium finishes, including the past two races, and currently sits seventh in the Drivers’ standings. There have been suggestions of Norris replacing Sergio Perez at Red Bull due to the Mexican’s struggles this season, although Perez is contracted for next year. Horner acknowledged Norris as a talented driver but mentioned that they are monitoring multiple drivers and their priority is to field the best two drivers possible, whether from their junior pool or elsewhere.
