    Of course Checo fucking takes the piss. It’ll be fun to see who Red Bull put in that second seat in 2025. Maybe Sainz? Tsunoda?

      I mean, Checo has been renewed for 2025, and option for 2026…

      but that all could change but it would cost RB a lot of $$

        Something tells me that Red Bull’s “fuck you” money means they don’t really care all that much. Plus, Helmut in all certainty wants Checo gone, fucked up racism notwithstanding.

          he’s not doing himself any favours that he is still sitting 16th… isn’t even making up places in the backfield

          I feel like anybody in that car would be going faster than perez

            That’s exactly my point. I’d love to see Sainz or Yuki in that spot. I genuinely believe Yuki would be a top 5 threat in a Red Bull.

          Helmut has lost his power in the team, as far as we know. And RB definitely doesnt want to put their own money into the team

            Deservedly so. Wouldn’t really shock me that much if he’s a wannabe Nazi.

            RB definitely don’t want to put their own money into the team.

            Ah, the age old question of money.

              Marko was born in 1943 within a country annexed by Nazi Germany. His post-war upbringing in a society that wasn’t really denazified is definitely noticeable.
