Max Verstappen has threatened that he could walk away from F1 at the end of the current season.
Former F1 driver Martin Brundle has advised Red Bull on how to handle the potential replacement of Max Verstappen at the end of the year. Verstappen has hinted at leaving the sport due to his dislike for the new cars, which would leave a significant gap in Red Bull’s lineup. Red Bull has rotated through several drivers in recent years, many of whom struggled to match Verstappen’s performance. Brundle criticized Red Bull’s quick dismissal of drivers who couldn’t keep up with Verstappen and suggested considering former drivers like Gasly or Sainz as replacements. He emphasized the importance of allowing drivers to make mistakes and learn from them in a supportive environment. Ultimately, Brundle warned against disregarding former drivers just because they’ve been with the team before, highlighting the need to consider all options for Verstappen’s potential replacement.
