Red Bull may feel its early 2025 F1 driver change has already been justified. And it probably has been. But it’s still not solved the problem – and it might have an even bigger one at its second team
Red Bull is facing a curious predicament as the early-season driver change has yet to pay off for either of its Formula 1 teams.
Yuki Tsunoda and Liam Lawson have not shown outstanding performances since switching seats at the Japanese Grand Prix.
Tsunoda has improved slightly compared to Lawson, but has not fully supported Max Verstappen, with a best finish of ninth and just seven points in five races.
Lawson is struggling at Racing Bulls, still without any points this season.
Both drivers have time to improve their performances, but Lawson seems to be under more pressure, considering the situation.
Red Bull is urging patience with Tsunoda, as he adapts to the challenges of his new position in the team.
