It's biblical that the downfall of his own beloved team is down to the inability to keep it in his trousers. What a guy. I can see Max in that Merc '26.Means less Horner too, which is the main benefit.

Staying quiet about what? Perez barely finishes in the points and everyone is fairly vocal about how rubbish he is. The only team orders Perez gets is to stop driving so slowly.I think RB fans are currently torn between staying quiet, or talking absolute jibberish like arguing that their competitors shouldn't be using team orders because it damages the racing.. conveniently forgetting they've been using team orders for years now, and there's currently 7 cars on the grid that could realistically win a race on any given day![]()
The fact that the RB appears to be the fourth fastest car now.Staying quiet about what?
But that's the discussion. If one of your drivers cannot realistically win the WDC and your other driver can, does that not make the former a no.2 driver?but I can accept them when there's a clear #2, which McLaren doesn't have.
I know Twitter/X is a minefield but I assure you the RB fans are acutely aware of the situation that they find themselves in.The fact that the RB appears to be the fourth fastest car now.

No? Of course not.But that's the discussion. If one of your drivers cannot realistically win the WDC and your other driver can, does that not make the former a no.2 driver?
I guess if you ignore every other race this season. McLaren have the quickest car, and then it's whoever between RB, Ferrari and Merc get their setup right.The fact that the RB appears to be the fourth fastest car now.
Then it should be easy for Norris to out-drive him, especially when starting from pole...But that's the discussion. If one of your drivers cannot realistically win the WDC and your other driver can, does that not make the former a no.2 driver?
I don't think many people support just a team. How many Lewis fans are going to stay Merc fans after he moves to Ferrari?Do Red Bull actually have fans that aren't Max or Checo fans ?
Can't say I've ever met anyone who actively supports them as a team unless their favourite driver is driving for them.
Red Bull also saved Formula 1 from dropping to 8 teams in 2005/2006 when they bought both Jaguar and then Minardi.Do Red Bull actually have fans that aren't Max or Checo fans ?

Granted that's the case to a certain extent with other teams (Hamilton fans switching allegiance from McLaren to Merc for example) but at least the other big teams have a long history in the automotive industry as well as obviously manufacturing cars... people are fans of their products.
Red Bull is just a team that exists purely to sell energy drinks. They don't really have a product which would make people love them as a company. Perhaps I'm living in a cave and there are actually people who get as obsessive over an energy drink as they do a LaFerrari or whatever
